Brian Eno - Back in Judy's Jungle



These are your orders, seems like it's do it or die 
So, please read them closely 
When you've learnt them, be sure that you eat them up 
They're specially flavored with Burgundy, Tizer and Rye 
Twelve sheets of foolscap, don't ask me why 
 
We hit the jungle just as it starts to monsoon 
Our maps showed no rainfall 
All the boys were depressed by this circumstance 
Trust in the weather to bless agricultural man 
Who gives birth to more farmhands, don't ask me why 
 
Fifteen was chosen because he was dumb 
Seven because he was blind 
I got the job because I was so mean 
While somehow appearing so kind 
 
Drifting about through the cauliflower trees 
With a cauliflower ear for the birds 
The squadron assembled what senses they had 
And this is the sound that they heard 
 
Back at headquarters, khaki decisions are made 
File under 'Futile', that should give you it's main point of reference 
It's all so confusing, what with pythons and then deadly flies 
But to them it's a picnic, don't ask me why 
 
Thirteen was chosen because of his luck 
Eleven because of his feet 
One got signed up for exceptional pluck 
Another because he was mute 
 
Roaming about through the gelatin swamps 
With a gelatin eye on the stripes 
The squadron assembled what senses they had 
And this is the sound that they heard 
 
Back in Blighty there was you 
There were milkmen every morning 
But these endless shiny trees 
Never used to be that way 
 
Back in Blighty there was you 
There were milkmen every morning 
But these endless shiny trees 
Never used to be that way 
 
Back in Blighty there was you 
There were milkmen every morning 
But these endless shiny trees
