about

A more arranged version of the tune became the title track of Spottiswoode & His Enemies' Mediterranean adventure and third album.

lyrics

Girls with glasses and ten dollar arses
That's what I like
Big ol' fat ones, yellow and black ones
That's what I like

Ladies from Boston with college degrees
Swimmers and gymnasts with knobbly knees
Working class mothers and rich divorcees
That's what I like

Fun ones with dimples, young ones with pimples
That's what I like
Sly ones and strippers, shy ones in slippers
That's what I like

Farmer's daughters, engineers wives
Girls who throw parties, girls who throw knives
Spinsters who've made the most of their lives
That's what I like

But only just to look
Darling, I promise on the book

Born again Christians who read Solzhenitsyn
That's what I like
Brunettes, redheads, feminists, deadheads
That's what I like

Girls who've been thirty for twenty five years
Some they talk dirty, so cover your ears
Ladies who ride you like charioteers
That's what I like

But only just to look
Darling, I promise on the book

Vegetarians hooked on vitamins
Arabs, Jews, senior citizens
Russians, Turks, Tutsis, Hutus
Busty girls from Tonga in tutus
Is it so strange?
Is it so wrong?
I'm not ashamed to sing this song
Cos that's what I like
