"Ali Click" lyrics - BRIAN ENO

BRIAN ENO
"Ali Click"

Jolly Roger in a pickup
Has a packet on the horses
He's a docker with a bucket -
Just the ticket in a thicket.

Silly Sally isn't pally
With the crackers in the alley:
She's a smacker and a whacker -
Wouldn't dally with a slacker.

Sally keeping in her locker
Little packets for the docker Jolly Roger
(Looking pretty, just the sucker for a shocker)

Jolly Roger in a pickup
Has a packet on the horses
He's a docker with a bucket -
Just the ticket in a thicket.


[The Maxi-CD Ali Click single has versions which also include these words:]

Brian's mood is gradually changing. He orders all his friends into another room, closes the door, he sits alone on the wooden floor, visible only by the dim light shining from the bathroom. He talks to himself.

Brian's been amusing his friends by chewing on some plastic flash-bulbs.
