Lyric Sheets: Upon Doing Lunch
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

They'll fax the contracts over
The cheque is in the post
...Uove al Fiorentino
You'll have it by October
About three weeks at most
Another drop of vino?
The Spanish lost the sleeve-art
The single cost ten grand
Or seafood canneloni?
We haven't got the money
To pay the actual band
He's having lunch with Sony
They'll be the next big Oasis
A Camden showcase gig
Two main course Tortellinis
A lodda people think so.
They might be very big
And just the four Martinis
A limited edition
And twelve-inch giveaway
A bottle of J.D.
I haven't seen the plunger
He's still on holiday
Oh...Just gone half past three
He did some deals at MIDEM
We flew Club Class, Air France
Is this a pepper mill?
The band are still playing Butlins
There wasn't an advance
Some coffee and the bill.
Well yeah, but thass musiciansh
A most ungrateful bunch
No, grain an' grape don't mix.
Bes' not to give `em money
Jus' take `em out to lunssh
Oh...Twenny-five to six.
