Swallow the camel
Swallow the camel head to toe

You're like a husky when the ice gets thin
You leave me standing with my beard in a post box
It's getting easy burrowing under my skin
A parliament of owls in the moss

So just swallow the camel
Swallow the camel
HEAD TO TOE
HEAD TO TOE

Have you been off smoking your socks again?
I'm just a bear swatting a fly
OFF your forehead
Who let go of the reins?
No matter where you go your hands are tied

So just swallow the camel
Swallow the camel head to toe
Swallow the camel
Swallow the camel
Down it goes

In diplomacy's name
I swear I'll tell the truth
The whole truth (Unless it causes too much pain!)
In which case I'll revert back to little white lies
So cunningly disguised behind a big fresh from the dentist' white smile...

So just swallow the camel
Swallow the camel head to toe
Swallow the camel
Swallow the camel
Down it goes"
