John Tabacco, Peter Kearns - Look out for John Cleese Lyrics

LOOK OUT FOR JOHN CLEESE

Look out

Look out for John Cleese

Working on The Week That Was

He wrote some jokes for David Frost

There on the BBC, boy

Minus the law diploma

Revered by his dad 
who tried to give the squeeze



Look out

Look out for John Cleese

A thing I bet you didn't know
 before the "Flying Circus" show

His name was really Cheese (Yeah, that s right)

His family didn't like it
It didn't seem right to have a surname reflecting the acrid

Reviews might be rabid with standards set so high

So he spent a long time...



Locked up in some room

With Graham Chapman every day

Avoiding any weak cliche

Searching for the laugh to finally send us 'round the bend

Doubling over with a ruptured spleen



But after that it wasn't too long before our Johnny started getting restless

He left the Python show
 but stayed for Life Of Brian and
The Holy Grail



Look out
Look out

Look out for John Cleese!

There had to be another way

A charming place for you to stay

Located in Torquay, boy

Long lists of cheese aromas
 were putting him in a coma


Silly walking or an angry distress
He owns it whatever the roll

So tell me he won't come to an end

Cause that would leave a Cleese shaped hole

So look out for John Cleese
Look out for John Cleese
Look out for John Cleese, please!
Look out for John Cleese
Boy!
