Leaky Tunnel - The Fiery Furnaces

I pulled my kerchief out of my pocket

Wiped my nose and said hello

I bought a tambourine at the millennium dome

It jangled 2000 times in a row

I caught a cold when I was way down south

Standing out in the heat

Now my eyes are all itchy

And I can’t tell which way to walk down the street

I’m stumbling through the crosswalk

And I’m humming in the din

And when I get to the other side

I’m gonna jangle my tambourine again

I fished my microphone out of Regent’s Canal

Heading from Little Venice to Greenwich

Dirty boy said let’s make in love in the water

I said, No thanks, pal

Went on dictating in my mic

I got no time for a dip cause I’m heading for my ship

I’m going down to the tunnel

Down to the leaky leaky tunnel
