Another Lot Songtext
von Spike Milligan

Sold to Mrs. Eleanor Crutt for two guineas
Ow!
A lot number four!

One mahogany bedside cabinet with flowered porcelain nature receptacle
One folk loom twill and lace antimacassar
One Hepplewhite telescope tripod with a tarnished brass securing screw
One imitable Martian mahrum

One imitation marble washstand with
Purification dish and fish attachment

One anti-burglar self-preservator head bludgeon
Sand-filled and hand-sewn, brown leather

Two cleverly and quandarick hand-operated
Brown oak candleholders with additional string

One stuffed Galapagos giant turtle on
Wheels with clockwork revolving eyes

Two bottles of imitation wax fruit, one banana ruefully chipped
Once the property of the late Lord Frederick Crapton Lee of Monmouth

One brown
Come on, big fella, come on, up you go, yeah, come on, come on


With extra string

One brown leather and moquette fireside chair
One engraved kapok-filled arctic tea
Cosy with additional string and computer

One brass iron-bound bedstead with spring-
Head manipulator and foot-operated mallet
A similar lot
Seven and a half pairs of brown damask curtains
With foam rubber lining, well known in Belgravia

One cut-glass Delft claret decanter with extra string

One brass and metal three-foot-six bedstead with
Haircord anti-tick mattress and sundry attachments
A similar lot

Another lot

One collection of high altitude eagle studies

Two volumes on how to wean vultures


One volume on how to leave vultures alone
Collection of unknotted string in hand-twined balls and
Vice-versa, whichever be greater to the power of ten
Fourteen man-mounted ivory monkeys cut from single wrought-
Iron elephant tusk and signed "Jim Yakamoto of Leeds"

One kiln-fired clay hairy Alsatian, auntie to
The name of Tom, Dick, or Harry and in that order
One Sheridan stirrup cup in squatted brawn
And meadlucks, the property of the Corn Hunt
And a similar lot
One box of brown haircord buttons
Each containing two or four perforations
A similar lot

One early X-ray photo of Florence Nightingale′s teeth, facing east
Extra string in abundance
One child's hangman′s kit, once used
Two heavy brown boxes on brass stilts
One polished monogrammed brass-bound box
Containing three pairs of domestic knee protectors
One throat mallet

One small brown pot containing another small brown pot

One iron-bound Uncle Frightener in three-foot length
One Aunty Disintegrator in matted haircord
One pair of anonymous fruit bowls with appliances to boot
