Karaoke Track: The Knicker Elastic King by The Rutles (Sunfly)

He used to travel

in bath cubes
until the slump came

Faced with redundancy
he turned his mind
to other things
and soon became
a household name

Knicker elastic
everybody used it

knicker elastic
nobody refused it
The Knicker Elastic King

A self-made man
with a business to run

and something to sell
to everyone

The Knicker Elastic King

He grew so rich

the Gnomes of Zurich
were green with envy

The darling of
the Stock Exchange

made the New Year&#39;s
Honours List

Knicker elastic
essence of propriety

knicker elastic
upholder of society

00h la la...

Instrumental
13 seconds

His rubber business
kept expanding

but then disaster
eee by gum!

The price of raw materials
coupled with inflation

squeezed his
global holdings

And that&#39;s the story of

The Knicker Elastic King
and market forces

The Knicker Elastic King
horses for courses
a self-made man
with a business to run

Something to sell

to everyone

Ooh la la

The Knicker Elastic King
