Lyrics (unofficial)

I met a woman she's spouting prose
She got luggage eyes and a Roman nose
Her body is slung from side to side
Need a lift, she said much obliged
I'm riding piggy-back, I come to her shack, ooh!

I go inside, the place is a mess
She says, I am the liquid poetess
She unties her mouth and her buckskin dress
She drinks from a bottle labelled tenderness
I'm in one hand, in the other is a can

She puts me in the can and smiles through the wall
I got the horror's cos I'm one inch tall
The next thing I know girl by my side
Dressed in a bayleaf, she's trying to hide
I asked her name, she says Germaine

I do the rock, do the one inch rock
I do the rock, do the one inch rock
I do the rock, do the one inch rock
I do the rock, do the one inch rock

Oh na-na, na-na na-ha
Everybody gotta do the one inch rock
