...ave a Slimline brief-case and I use the firm's Cortina.
In every roadside hostelry from here to Burgess Hill
The ma?tres d'h?tel all know me well, and let me sign the bill.

Essentially, I integrate the current export drive
And basically I'm viable from ten o'clock till five.

For vital off-the-record work - that's talking transport-wise -

...e miedo,
entra en la casa que tiene,
m?s arriba de los pinos,
el c?nsul de los ingleses.

 Asustados por los gritos
tres carabineros viene,
sus negras capas ce?idas

 El ingl?s da a la gitana
