Saint Etienne – Message In A Bottle lyrics

One, two, turtles are blue,
Three, four, ? ? ? ,
Five, six, ? ? ? ,
Seven, eight, you got no mates!
? ? treacle and ? ? ? .
Break a leg, boy on the moon,
No more tyneside's favourite son.

One, two, turtles are blue,
Three, four, ? ? ? ,
Five, six, ? ? ? ,
Seven, eight, you got no mates!

Reading books by nabokov,
Schoolkids told you, "bugger off!"
So you sung about dread and fear,
You're a legal alien, dear.

One, two, turtles are blue,
Three, four, ? ? ? ,
Five, six, ? ? ? ,
Seven, eight, you got no mates!

While you were out, saving trees,
Your accountant doubled his fees.
Five million down the drain;
Poor old teacher's got no brain.

One, two, turtles are blue,
Three, four, ? ? ? ,
Five, six, ? ? ? ,
Seven, eight, you got no mates!

So many crimes committed to wax,
Andy's hanging up his axe,
? ? ? went on to equalise.
Sting's a bell boy in disguise.

One, two, turtles are blue,
Three, four, ? ? ? ,
Five, six, ? ? ? ,
Seven, eight, you got no mates!

You got no mates!
You got no mates!
You got no mates, got no mates!
