We’re Scared of Bob Lyrics by Spitting Image

Spit In Your Ear

1986

(Tina Turner)
Once in a while, comes a call for you and me
(Michael Jackson)
It's a call to which we must respond
(Bob Dylan)
We may be stars, but we got feelings too
(Mick Jagger)
And there's one thing on which we're all agreed
(Bruce Springsteen)
We're scared of Bob
(Tina Turner)
We're scared of Geldof
(Bruce Springsteen)
We are the ones he screams at like fools
(All)
So let's start singing
(David Bowie)
The cause is just, that cannot be denied
(Tina Turner)
Ah but does he have to make us so petrified?
(Wrong numbers)
Some of us here you may not recognize
Because in truth we really don't belong
But when Bob called us up
We didn't have the guts
To tell him the number he dialed was wrong
(Bruce Springsteen)
We're scared of Bob
(All)
We're scared of Geldof
(Bruce Springsteen)
We're scared that if we try to turn him down we'd all get telled off
(Cyndi Lauper)
Of course I'm nervous
And you'd be jumpy too
If Bob had had a word with you yeah, yeah
(Barbra Streisand & All)
We're scared of Bob
That's why we're singing
(Madonna & Prince with All)
We get the jitters everytime we hear the phone start ringing
(Bette Midler & All)
We're scared of Bob
We're really frightened
And when we hear that Irish voice our sphincters all get tightened
(All)
We're scared of Bob
We're scared of Geldof
We're scared of Bob
That's why we're singing
[Repeat until fade]
