about

Where does this song come from? The events of an unusual day seen from a very casual perspective.

lyrics

It's a glorious morning in w-1-a
With your limited beauty on total display
Listen up and sit down we've got the show right here
Get the gin ready and enjoy the veneer

Later in the day we've got helen of troy
And we'll be sharing recipes with an essex boy
Lots of baking and quaking, sewing and seams
In the middle ms mae - the stuffing of dreams

Favourite records, favourite toys
From cheap imitation to real mccoys
Now casting off - all hands on deck
I'll be there in a minute - just a sec

Fantastic!
Head to toes
Follow the story
Wherever it goes

Fantastic!
From the bottom to the top
We're in the window
Waking you up

Bam listen - what's that sound
Something unheard of is makings its round
What i'm hearing is massive and a massive surprise
We're all in for a treat can you feel it arrive

Tadada - the sound coming on strong
Now the notes have past and the moment is gone
Tadada - can we get that again
Here with more details is a microphone man

Between the houses, terraces, parks and cars
Something's leaving the dust sporting fins and jaws
Tickling my ears, misleading my eyes
What the?!?

Fantastic!
Head to toes
Follow the story
Wherever it goes

Fantastic!
From the bottom to the top
Truth be delivered
Like a bomb drop

Now coming to you live from the borderline
With the main house burning and the tower on fire
We've got all the pictures but are lacking the brain
We're all lit up, i guess we're going insane

Try to reason with it, try to make it return
To its origins, to be another's concern
People throwing money, people making faces
People dying for a story in a number of cases

Later generations will be having their doubts
Bout a giant sea creature they're reading about
But for as long as we live we'll be singing the song
About how broadway came down and we were taken along

Fantastic!
Fead to toes
Follow the story
Wherever it goes

Fantastic!
From the bottom to the top
Truth be delivered
Like a bomb drop

Fantastic!
From the bottom to the top
We're in the window
Waking you up

Fantastic!
A couple more bites
He's done more damage in a day
Than a tory in a night

Fantastic!
From the bottom to the top
My head is my heart
I am closing up shop
