lyrics

No sign of that show dog anywhere on this train,
There's just that ugly-looking great dane.
You're quite convincing but you won't win me round,
Because you're a substitute for another hound.
You are the tramp, now what did you do with the lady?

The switch, as you call it, will not be changed!
The switch, as you call it, will not be changed!

At lunch you were a little bit pushy but it's not your fault.
That fuss when you asked the Englishman to pass the salt ... you said
My favourite dog food, you can't beat it,
Didn't you know a million Mexican dogs eat it?
You know what they say - a million Mexican dogs can't be wrong!

The switch, as you call it, will not be changed!
The switch, as you call it, will not be changed!

The switch, as you call it, will not be changed!
The switch, as you call it, will not be changed!
That would be a little outside our range!
'Cause the switch, as you call it, will not be changed!

“The very definition of ‘cult favourites’, the Chrysanthemums are the sort of group who inspire loyalty among a small band of admirers while remaining entirely below the radar of the public at large ... few bands walk the knife's edge between accessibility and impenetrability so well.” [Stewart Mason, AllMusic] ... more
