The Jazz Butcher Lyrics Waiting For Sumo

Lyrics

Waiting For Sumo
(...otherwise - might as well sit here and
pick our noses and put blankets over our amps...)

Waiting for Sumo
Waiting for Sumo

This is a story of little Jake
she's not a man, she's a cake.
She'd better not make any big mistake
around Sumo

Waiting for Sumo
Waiting for Sumo

Somebody'd better come see about Dooj
Somebody told him that the beast was huge
Un chien énorme avec des gros dents rouges...
Not Sumo.

Waiting for Sumo
Waiting for Sumo
Waiting for Sumo (sumo...)
Waiting...

1994 live line-up stumbled through a series of tunes and such under Butcher's direction, aided and abetted by a number of the usual suspects; Alex Lee on guitar, Alex Green on saxes, that sort of thing.

Le Gateau (French - Cake)
El Gato (Spanish) - Cat... go figure
A surprisingly tranquil song about a rottweiller. Source: Creation Promo Summary
