Kate Bush Parody - Oh England My Leotard
Not the Nine O'Clock News - 1980
OH ENGLAND MY LEOTARD
I was into yin and yang and hatha yoga
Ginseng and caraway seeds and being a non-smoker
My cauliflower quiches were better than the bought ones
And I was thicker than two short ones
People bought my latest hits
Coz they like my latex tits
Now they're all trying hard
To get i
nside my leotard
Went to my hairdresser to have a hair-do
He asked if I knew A La Recherche De Temps Perdus
That's how I was introduced to Colette, Cocteau and Marcel Proust
Now wholefood cookery is just a sideline
La-La-La-La!
I went to Cairo and I read the Gnostic
Apocryphon of John in the orig
inal Coptic
Korsakoff's psychosis theories
And the Fibonacci series
Studied acupuncture and the Bible
Opened the windows in my mind!
'It's not your mind, it's your body they're into'
My business manager said
He said that I need an intellect like I need a
Hole in the hole in the hole in the head!
Though I'm an honorary member of Mensa now
I'm going to try and keep up the pretence somehow!
Coz you buy my latest hits
Because you like my latex tits
And you're all trying hard to get inside my
Leotard leotard leotard
Oh England, my leotard...

Yes... actually it definitely is.
Great parody, there's still respect for her at the same time, and it's intelligent.
Very clever and very funny!
kate bush is the best.
y'know what - i think she'd probably find it funny as well!
