We were all flooded with a scarlet light
D
Came through the windows from the rain outside
Em
All went quiet, a vision appeared
Em D
With a rose in her hair and a ring in her ear
And she said

"Buenos dias boys this looks like the place
D A D
To make my re-entry to the human race
G
Here I am and here I'll stay
D A
Till it's hasta-la-vista and I'm on my way"

And Vince said "She was a woman to whom life had been cruel
And she lived with a fat man of the naif school
He liked his beer and he put it about
But she truly loved him till the lights went out"
Then she made her way up to the pearly gates
She saw Saint Peter, he was pumping weights
He says "Hitch a lift upon this falling star
And make your way down to the Taybridge Bar"
G
There'll be no more lies, no more tears
D A D
No more listening through the fat man's ears
G
There'll be no more tears, no more lies
D A
No more looking through the fat man's eyes

D
She said she'd never been so happy in a long, long time
D
And her mind was relaxed and her body felt fine
G
She said "put on perdido, tonight's the night
D
I want to dance with Jimmy Howie in the pale moonlight
There'll be no more lies, no more tears
No more listening through the fat man's ears
There'll be no more tears and no more lies
No more looking through the fat man's eyes
