Button up Your Overcoat Songtext

von The Bonzo Dog Band

Listen, big boy,
Now that you got me made,
Goodness, but I'm afraid,
Something's gonna happen to you!
Listen, big boy,
You gotta me hooked, and how,
I should die if I should lose you now!
Button up your overcoat,
When the wind is free,
Take good care of yourself,
You belong to me!
Eat an apple every day,
Get to bed by three,
Take good care of yourself,
You belong to me!
Be careful crossing streets, ooh-ooh,
Don't eat meat, ooh-ooh
Cut out sweets, ooh-ooh,
You'll get a pain and ruin your tum-tum!
Keep away from bootleg hooch
When you're on a spree,
Take good care of yourself,
You belong to me!
Don't step on hornet's tails, ooh-ooh!
Or on snails, ooh-ooh!
Or third rails, ooh-ooh!
You'll get a pain and ruin your tum-tum!
Keep away from bootleg hooch
When you're on a spree,
Take good care of yourself,
You belong to me!
Beware of frozen ponds, ooh-ooh,
Peroxide blondes, ooh-ooh,
Stocks and bonds, ooh-ooh,
You'll get a pain and ruin your bankroll!
Keep aware of underwear,
When you climb a tree,
Take good care of yourself,
You belong to me!
