Came across somebody on the internet
Now I can't recall the name, the face, and body
Looks about the same
It's all I can say

Oh I used to know an engineer
He was very tall
Had great wide ears
And he played the guitar on his knees
In between the classes, in between the trees

[Chorus]
I've got Jelly Babies
I've got Hennessy
I don't need no food
For to keep
No refrigerate
No televise
I become the man I once despised

Then I met the one
Her name was Claire
She had grey green eyes
Purple lilac hair

She broke my heart
Over a game of cards
That was it
She'd gone too far
Set me up my pension please
I go havering beyond the seas
Risk it all on a champion breed
At the Greyhound station on a Wednesday eve

[Chorus]
I've got Jelly Babies
I've got Hennessy
I don't need no food
For to keep
No refrigerate
No televise
I become the man I once despised

[Chorus]
I've got Jelly Babies
I've got Hennessy
I don't need no food
For to keep
No refrigerate
No televise
I become the man I once despised
