lyrics

When they moved from Turkey,
Her mum said to her,
"Julie, you can take your best toys,
But you can't take your hamster",

"Screw that", Julie Thought,
"That is pretty lame,
I don't care cause Lucifer,
Is going on that plane"

WooooOOOoooo

So she's at check in,
Looking innocent,
Putting a cute face on,
For the Customs Officer

Whilst behind his back,
On the x-ray screen,
Lucifer the Hamster,
Is being smuggled in

WoooooOOoooo

On the way to Blighty,
No Quarantine,
You might think that she was reckless,
But she was only thirteen,

This was the first time,
Julie broke the law,
And not the last time,
As we already know,

On a more serious note,
we'd like to remind you that the penalty for smuggling an animal illegally into the UK is a thousand pound fine, a criminal record and the animal still has to be quarantined or destroyed... Taking Lucifer the Hamster legally from Turkey to Britain would have cost Julie mum about 300 quid....for a hamster...
Isn't that just total day light robbery?!

WoooooOOOOooo
