Shiny, shiny, shiny bathroom taps
Scrub the limescale that make them dark
Spray the bowls with super cleaning fluids
Strike, dear mistress, and leave no mark
Clean the pipes that sadly are all dusty
Sweep the corners that hide the muck
Toilet Duck, chuck in a bit of bleach
I'll soon be finished with any luck
I am tired, I am weary
I could sleep for a thousand years
A thousand dreams that would awake me
No expenses, a job of tears
Kiss the heart of shiny, shiny oven
Shiny metal in the dark
Tongue of snakes, the coils that await me
Strike, dear mistress, and leave no mark
Stigmum, stigmum, speak so slightly
Stigmum, down on your bended knee
Taste the grime, in truth not given lightly
Taste the grime, now plead with me
I am tired, I am weary
I could sleep for a thousand years
A thousand dreams that would awake me
No expenses, a job of tears
Shiny, shiny, shiny flats surround me
Whiplashed mamma's in the dark
Stigmum, your servant comes in bells, please don't forsake me
Strike, dear mistress, and leave no mark
(Velvet Underground and Nico told Stigmum to get herself some marigolds before her hands drop off and stop envying politicians' wives, but for the cleaning allowance, she wouldn't really want to be one)
