Fair Touching Lyrics
Under the iron shop
The farewell ladies wink
Always promising
No one to crush them
Always pokerfaced before bingo
Does it snap or just happen?
But a queen's prize awaits
She might rub her legs
But a queen's prize awaits
Currently fabulous
And perhaps at last
The song you sing will have meaning
The farewell ladies wink
Always promising
No one to crush them
Always pokerfaced before bingo
Does it snap or just happen?
She might rub her legs
But a queen's prize awaits
And perhaps at last
The song you sing will have meaning

Maybe I have a dirty mind, but I've always thought the chorus was a masturbation reference. But I'm sure I'm selling Pollard's lyrical genius short.
I've always imagined the Praying Mantis mating ritual (the female biting off the male's head after mating) when hearing this song. As with most Pollard songs, it's colorful and vague enough that everyone will probably paint their own story.
