The Yip Song

Robyn Hitchcock & The Egyptians

Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip

Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip

Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip

Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip



This old man, he was flesh -- they wheeled him in upon a trolley

Vera Lynn, Vera Lynn

Draw a window on his skin now

Vera Lynn nin nin nin nin nin nin nin nin nin

Vera Lynn nin nin nin nin nin nin nin nin nin



This old man, he was next -- blindfolded to face the volley

Vera Lynn, Vera Lynn

"Love will come of all our sins"

Painted on my tail fin now Vera Lynn

Vera Lynn nin nin nin nin nin nin nin nin nin

Vera Lynn nin nin nin nin nin nin nin nin nin



This old man persevered -- in his mind he lay with Molly

Vera Lynn, Vera Lynn

Cleanse us with your healing grin

Septicemia always wins, now

Vera Lynn nin nin nin nin nin nin nin nin nin

Vera Lynn nin nin nin nin nin nin nin nin nin



Coma high, coma low

Blood is precious, yes or no?

I believe in surgery -- and that's a fact

I believe in making it easy

I believe in surgery, but I never act

I believe in making it easy



Easy Easy Easy

Easy Easy Easy



Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip

Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip

Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip

Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip



This old man, he was gone -- he was gone and I was sorry

Vera Lynn, Vera Lynn

Down I spiral, down I spin

Forces sweetheart, I'm your twin now

Vera Lynn nin nin nin nin nin nin nin nin nin

Vera Lynn nin nin nin nin nin nin nin nin nin



Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip

Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip

Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip

Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip

Yip!
