Ghost of Errol Flynn

If some night you get that strange desire
That you might contract because
your soul's on fire

Let me tell you mister since you asked
'bout a character
right out of your recent past
and he never could be defeated
and he never not once retreated
never in a million years
never in a million years

everybody wished they'd been
just a little bit like Errol Flynn
when you're trying to commit some sin
take a look my friend
that's the ghost of Errol Flynn

Some said that it was mankind 's fate
To be left waiting at the starting gate
That's when Errol's sure to reappear
To remind us all
There's nothing in the world to fear
and they never could analyse him
and they never could categorize him
never in a million years
never in a million years

Chorus

And since we're on the subject
there's a lesson to be learned
don't put out the fire
just because you might get burnt
just remember you know who
there was nothing he could not do
nothing in the stratosphere
nothing in million years

Chorus
