Richard Thompson - A Bone Through Her Nose Lyrics
Oh the drones on the corner don't look her in the eye when she comes out to playAnd three times now at the Club Chi-Chi they've turned her awayLast week she was the belle of the ball but another week passesIt's time to cast off crutches, scars and pebble glassesShe's got everything a girl might needShe's a tribal animal, yes indeedBut she hasn't got a bone through her nose, through her noseHasn't got a bone through her noseShe hasn't got a bone through her nose, through her noseShe hasn't got a bone through her noseHasn't got a bone through her nose, through her noseShe hasn't got a bone through her noseOh she gets her suits from a personal friend, Coco the clownShe got dustman's jacket, inside out, it's a party gownIf it's bouffons, she's got bouffons, if it's tat she got tatShe got hoochie coochie Gucci and a pom-pom hatShe's got everything a girl might needShe's a tribal animal, yes indeedBut she hasn't got a bone through her nose, through her noseShe hasn't got a bone through her noseShe hasn't got a bone through her nose, through her noseShe hasn't got a bone through her noseShe hasn't got a bone through her nose, through her noseShe hasn't got a bone through her noseNo!Well, her ma writes cook books, she wrote one once, and it sold one or twoHer pa's in the city, he's so witty, he calls it the zooHer boyfriend plays in Scritti Politti, Aunt Sally's brown breadIn a few more years she can marry some fool and knock it on the headShe's got everything a girl might needShe's a tribal animal, yes indeedBut she hasn't got a bone through her nose, through her noseShe hasn't got a bone through her noseShe hasn't got a bone through her nose, through her noseShe hasn't got a bone through her noseShe hasn't got a bone through her nose, through her noseShe hasn't got a bone through her noseShe hasn't got a, Oh she hasn't got a, Oh
