about

Track 3 of the Fight or Nah EP.
Originally written by Bristol band Needletree, in 1994. It featured an entirely different musical arrangement back then. The lyric for 'Smile', written by Martin Maidment and Shaun McCrindle, has been retained in 'Magical Smile'.

lyrics

Hey! Hey! He-eee-yyy.....!

No matter what you wear
Won't be nobody staring
I know that queen would kill
For you to bite the shilling

See the press are thrilled
Another sapphic wedding
But they would suffer glad
For you to bite the shilling

This is the bottom line
If you don't walk it Roman
Down at the 49
you're daddy's boy all over

It's not just fixing cars
It's more like choice of bars
You have to swallow whole

Um, Yeah, yeah,
oo-oo-oo-oo-oo

You know..

You know..

You know that magical smile will get you
You know that mummy and daddy won't let you
You know that magical smile will get you
You know that mummy and daddy won't let you

No matter what you wear
Won't be nobody staring
I know that queen would kill
For you to bite the shilling

See the press are thrilled
Another sapphic wedding
But they would suffer glad

Yeah, yeah,
oo-oo-oo-oo-oo

You know..

You know..

You know that magical smile will get you
You know that mummy and daddy won't let you
You know that magical smile will get you
You know that mummy and daddy won't let you

You know that magical smile will get you
You know that mummy and daddy won't let you
You know that magical smile will get you
You know that mummy and daddy won't let you

Hey!
