lyrics
Steffi met Dennis
Out in Hong Kong
She said, "Do you like tennis?"
He said, "D'you want to hear a song?"
They ordered Thai food from a beachfront cafe
And the world said, "Faster, faster, faster."
They opened a Jamaican takeaway
And served burgers to the tourists
Steffi makes great curried goat
And Dennis makes great jerk sauce
People like to eat in their beachfront cafe
And the world said, "Faster, faster, faster."
Dennis died and Steffi wept
And the tourists mourned the loss
Of the jerk sauce on their burgers
And the fact their curried goat was
Tainted with Steffi's tears
And the world said, "Faster, faster, faster."
