Is he really going to die in there? (Joe Jackson's song parody)

This is a song designed as a short outro to the first half or alternatively as the intro to the second half, depending on how we arrange the verses. I think it is funnier as the outro though.


Pretty women out walking with gorillas down my street
From my window Im staring while my coffee grows cold

Look over there! (where? )
Theres a lady that I used to know
Shes married now, or engaged, or something, so I am told


Is she really going out with him?
Is she really gonna take him home tonight?
Is she really going out with him?

cause if my eyes dont deceive me,

Theres something going wrong around here


I'm imagining the later verses are telling the audience to go and have a 10 minute break and get some refreshments.



Poor ol’ Indie the slightly sexy geriatric
Beside that French girl he’s looking particularly old
Look over there! (where? )
There, it's Prince Harry in a Nazi suit
Unite the world under British rule, isn’t he bold?


Is he really going to die in there?
Is he really going to cark it here tonight? / 's asphyxiation going to take him o'er tonight?
Is he really going to die in there?

cause if my eyes dont deceive me,
there’s a localised physics anomaly around here / physics laws have been discarded right here
