Lyrics

[Chorus]
Manchester England, England
Across the Atlantic Sea
And I'm a genius, genius
I believe in God
And I believe that God
Believes in Claude
That's me
That's me
[Verse 1]
Claude Hooper Bukowski
Finds that it's groovy to hide in a movie
Pretends he's Fellini
And Antonioni
And also his countryman Roman Polanski
All rolled into one
One Claude Hooper Bukowski
[Verse 2]
Now that I've dropped out
Why is life dreary, dreary?
Answer my weary query
Timothy Leary dearie
[Chorus]
Oh, Manchester England, England
Across the Atlantic Sea
And I'm a genius, genius
I believe in God
And I believe that God
Believes in Claude
[Outro]
That's me
That's he
That's me
That's he
That's me
That's he
That's me
