Keith Reid

* Gary Brooker often sings 'A French girl has offered to teach me to dance' as it appears in Keith Reid's My Own Choice anthology.

She took all the pleasure and none of the pain
All of the credit and none of the blame
I came home to an empty flat
She'd left me a note and taken the cat

The cord that they knotted to keep us apart
Could never be broken: it was tied to my heart
She grew thin and I grew fat
She left me and that was that

I'm thinking of renting a villa in France
A French girl has offered to give me a chance *
Or maybe I'll take an excursion to Spain
And buy a revolver and blow out my brains
