Protocol

Paul Bell

Okay let's get the etiquette straight

I walk towards you, I nod

You nod back

Works all around the world

What doesn’t work, is, you stopping

Stopping is bad

It’s a protocol thing

One must never stop and engage one

You just don’t do it

I really don’t want to know about your corns

Don’t give a crap about your lumbago

The price of fish doesn’t interest me

Old Mrs Jones died this time

Sure she’ll be missed

Your wife’s having an affair

How are your corns

They really can be painful, I'm told

That lumbago

I could recommend a good chiropractor

The price of fish these days, shocking

Old Mrs Jones

God, I'll miss her

Is that my bust, bus

Need to rush.
