The Toy Dolls are an English punk rock band formed in 1979. Departing from the angry lyrics and music often associated with punk rock, The Toy Dolls worked within the aesthetics of punk to express a sense of fun, with songs such as "Yul Brynner Was a Skinhead", "My Girlfriend's Dad's a Vicar" and "James Bond Lives Down Our Street." There is often alliteration in their song titles (e.g. "Peter Practice's Practice Place", "Fisticuffs in Frederick Street", "Neville Is a Nerd"). They are probably best known however for their sole UK hit, a punk-rock cover of Nellie the Elephant.
Their albums usually include a cover version of a well-known hit song, usually speeded up to the usual punk rock tempo. Covers have included: "Blue Suede Shoes", "Toccata in Dm","No particular place to go", "Sabre Dance", "Livin' La Vida Loca", "Lazy Sunday Afternoon", "I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles), She's So Modern and "The Final Countdown." They have also recorded parodies of popular songs, such as "The Kids in Tyne and Wear (Kids in America)" and "The Devil Went Down to Scunthorpe (The Devil Went Down to Georgia)". Their albums often start with a short intro with a catchy guitar riff, and end with an outro, which is usually a slightly longer variation of the intro riff. Kazoos are also prominent in many of their songs
My mates warned me long ago
She will make you blue oo oo
they said you've been had
Untidy tart they told me so
the home that I once knew oo oo
was a filthy floozys pad
ONE MORE, TWO MORE
Fleas on the bedroom floor
No ones ever seen her, with a vacuum cleaner
THREE MORE, FOUR MORE
Mice unite at the kitchen door
IT WERN'T NO ROTTEN RUMOUR,
HE COULD NEVER MOVE HER
and I never saw her with a hoover.
Ide fell for a hag from Hell
she wernt the one to woo oo oo
In my new hovel.
ONE MORE....
She's nicked off, I'm in a spin
the first thing I shall do oo oo
is plug the hoover in.
I can't stop moping - I can't stop crying
I just ain't coping - don't feel like trying
"Don't ditch me," I cry, but this is her reply
She said "Oi mush, you've got the push goodbye!"
Some days, she said they're through, I always knew she'd leave again
Some days, she lied through her teeth, she'll be back with Keith some day
My heart is broken - jilted she blew me out
A mug once again, He's been dumped there's no doubt that
She's gone I'm alone, I must be off my head
Guess I should have known, she's keeping Keith instead
There's a little bear on the loose
* he's a lot of fun
children everywhere are gonna love him a lot
he's their #1
* told them about the things that he's done
and he's going to share all of his music with them

and freezin in the snow
Worky ticket everywhere we go
Worky ticket, worky ticket...
sent me up the pub for 20 L and B
but when I got back all she did was yell at me
she was sittin watchin Charles Dichens on the box
what's that funny smell ya better go and wash yer socks
I couldn't bear it could not take it any more
grabbed me coat and me hat and slipped out of the door
She's a little worky ticket I bought her a watch and
she wouldn't fit it
I fixed if meself, it smashed upon the shelf
She looks so grand a one night stand maybe
I took my chance I said "let's dance baby"
How was he to know, she would never let him go
Back at my place, in an embrace, we were
And stuck together I could never leave her
If he only knew, he'd fallen for a tube o' super glue
She's a leech - she's my shadow, she won't let go, NA NA NA NA
She's a leech - she's schizophrenic, she's magnetic, NA NA NA NA, stuck on me
Life's been hell since she got welded to me
I go nowhere unless she's there, ooeee
Can't escape this one, skintight fatal attraction
she sucked me dry
Twas fortunate when my best mate wooed her
He's a blockhead he's been bonded to her
Nobody loves me, nobody cares
Nobody invites me to the party - we don't want him there
Introverted, we stay
Sittin all alone his night is so sad - he ain't got no mates
Don't say a word, don't say a word, don't say a word to me
My oh my, I just don't know why,
Tell me why, oh why I'm a lonesome guy
Down they point everyone stares
I'm a lonely bastard there's
Nowt more, nowt more lonely than me
Nowt more, nowt more lonely than me
Nobody calls me nobody phones
Nobody ever sends a postcard to me - I'm always alone
She was at a party I was stuck at home
I was not invited so she went on her own
I will not be long now this is what she said
I'm stood waiting for her I must be off my head
Queen Alexandra Road is where she said she'd be
But was she there to meet me? No chance.
I was going to land her a thump when I see her you see
She's forgotten about me.
It was well past midnight she still dug the groove
I just stood there freezing I couldn't even move
She will soon get sick now want to go back home
There was no sign of her I should have known
Oh riganortis set in, I was a block of ice
I'de even missed the late film starring VincentPrice
Two o'clock she turned up, have you been waiting long?

He's sick of his bleedin' life, & he's gonna smack the wife in the jaw
Billy Mrs cleans and scrubs while Billy's down the boozer
But she's had a belly full now Billy's gonna lose her
She's in her dressing gown, Billy's breaking down the bedroom door
POT... POT BELLY BILL: A Big fat dirty lout
A pig & a layabout
POT... POT BELLY BILL: A fowl gob that's never shut
A fat slob with a beer gut.
POT POT POT BELLY BILL
He's such a hog at tea time, he shovels down his grub
He burps & makes rude noises, then he nicks off down the pub
Between you & me, & Billy's Mrs will agree, he's a swine
It's closing time at the local, & he stumbles out the bar
The drunken lump forgets to switch the lights on in his car
But Billy is a darer, he did not see the Sierra round the bend.
1/2 an hour latter Billy's hospitalised, "Tell the wife to bring some cans in
with the grapes" He cries.
There was Davey, there was Davey,
There was Davey, Happy Davey
His girlfriend's gone, his girlfriend's gone away, ay ay ay ay...
All he wants is a room with the stars looking down across Davey,
The sun and the moon and the sky high are just fine for poor Davey,
There's nothing left, there's nothing left,
There's nothing left to see for poor Davey...
He wants to be, he wants to be,
He wants to be alone...
Why did she love him so? Why did she have to go?
Poor Davey doesn't know, now Davey's all alone...
She did upset, she did upset,
She did upset Davey, Davey, Davey,
If you hoo hoo want a lesson or two,

Come on everybody sing Modern School of Motoring,
the best place to go if you want to crash,

Modern School just wants your cash.
Out on the road, don't use the highway code,

Modern School, Modern School,
Jump in and drive you're lucky to be alive,
when it's through...
When the test day, comes around they will say,
just stay cool, that's the rule of,
Modern School, Modern School,
then when you fail, they will say next time you'll sail,
We all believed that Neville
was a f f f fine lad
but when we go to know him better
Neville drove us mad.
Neville is a bighead
Neville is a pain
Neville is a pratt without a brain
What a wally, what a burk
he sticks out like a sore thumb
he's a wally, he's a jerk
nobody can be as dumb
Neville's a hopeless case
he can never pull a bird
Neville's thick and he's got a pig face
Neville is a nutter, Neville is nerd
oh Neville is a nutter, Neville is....
Neville is a nerd.
Neville gets on your wick
Neville is a moron
Neville makes you sick
oh Neville is a Neville is a nerd
Oh Neville's wearing Aramus
and a little touch of Brut,
he thinks he will pick up a chick
in his white trendy suit,
sunglasses in the disco
Nev can't see too clear
he's such a burk, he trips and
spills his beer
Neville's nice to all the girls
but it's just a bluff
Neville thinks he's Jack the lad
but he's just a trendy puff.
He says he's been to Tenerife
and he knows Simon le Bon,
but it's a codswallop
I couldn't wait for my blind date, I did not sleep that night
could I catch the perfect match, would she be Mrs Right!?
A quiet lass so middle class, dignified, meek & mild?
I faced the wrath of a Psychopath & a woman that went wild
Before too long it all went wrong, she wern't the one for me
But I was trapped when I got slapped by a raving loony
She got mean, she caused a scene, I said "You're not my type"
But I gave in, how could I win? As she threw another swipe...ferocoiusly
My wife's a psychopath. Throws a fit then she hides in the bathroom
My wife's a psychopath.Aooeee
My wife's a psychopath.Always on the warpath
After me, mentally deranged!
I'm black & blue, I said "We're through" I'm cuts n'scrapes n'scars
She clenched her fist, I ducked, she missed, so I kicked her up the arse!
She yelled & squealed as I revealed I had learnt some self defence
I smashed her face in, just incase, coz I hate violence...it's not for me
My wife's an psychopath...
God help me what can I do,
my girlfriend's dad is a Vicar boo hoo,
and he won't let me be alone with you,
oh he's a Vicar and there's nothing I can do
God help him what can he do,
his girlfriend's dad is a Vicar boo hoo,
and he won't let him be alone with you,
Wouldn't it be nice to get on with my neighbours
But they make it very clear they've got no room for ravers
Lazy sunday afternoon
I got no time to worry
I close my eyes & drift away
Here we all are sittin' in a rainbow
Cor blimy 'Allo Mrs. Jones, how's your Berts lumbago'
Diddly may...
I'll sing you a song with no words & no tune
Sing in your party while you suss out the moon
...Quiet passage
Roody Doody do, Roody doody di day
Roody Doody dum a Reedy deedy do dee
There's no one to hear me, there's nothing to say
& no one can stop me from feeling this way
Ooooh, ooooo
She's a fibber
she's always telling him lies
he can't trust her
no matter how he tries
she swore to me
that I would always be the one
then she blew me out she's upt and gone
Will she ever change
she won't fib to me again
or will she stay the same way as before
I tried tried tried to trust Tracy

Bored at a party Saturday night looking at Tupperware,
in came a chick who made me quickly glad I was th there,
how could I get the courage to ask her for a date?
Twas such a task for me to ask by then it was too late
Howza bouta... Howza Bouta, oooo she drives me crazy
howza bouta, howza bouta kiss baby!
Why am I such a whimp I thought a soft and skinny puff
For me to ask a kiss from her was difficult & tough
Right that's it I decided to confront the lass,
I started shakin at the knees & tried to make a pass
I lose my bottle everytime I see a girl I like
I start talkin jibberish & she says "on yer bike"
there must be something I can do a kiss would make my day
"I'm so glad" he tells me and you, "It's so sad" we know it ain't true:
Oooh, in Tommy's head
He told me, "I'm head over heels," a phoney
We know what he feels, but Tommy thought he knew:
In Tommy's head, he can't believe
" " " she had to leave
" " " he'll always yearn
" " " she will return
" I don't mind" at peace now he thinks
We ain't blind - we know what he feels - what he always dreams
There's a bloke from Hereford Road

Steve is tender Steve is sweet
she'll never let him go
Steven made her life complete
That's why I hate him so
Would she ever really understand
I came to Durham all the way from Sunderland,
when I got there I could not believe
she'd gone with that trendy creep called Steve
How could she forsake me and see this puff,
is it coz of me she's had enough
everytime I rang she was not there
I'm sorry but she's out, she's out with Steve again somewhere!
She's in love with Steven, Steven
gonna get even, gonna get Steven,
then she won't love Steven, Steven
gonna get eve, gonna get Steve.
Are she and Steve really in love like she says they are
or is it just because Steven's dad lends him the car
or is it coz I'm ugly and Steven's not
or does he have something that I haven't got
I'm gonna make him black & blue
I'm gonna kick his head in
He's not a thief or a burglar
he never robbed a bank
he didn't commit murder
all Geordie's bullets were blank
Set Geordie free, coz Geordie's not guilty
He's a good guy
the guy they never saw
the coppers were mistaken
Geordie never broke the law
Set Geordie free, he never shot nobody at all.
Geordie, ooooh he's the inocent party
.............. They've locked him away
.............. never shot nobody at all
.............. Geordie's gone to jail.
He never takes any drugs
(only penicilin) when he's got a headache
the fingerprint wasn't Geordie's
Geordie's never been a villan.
Set Geordie free, he never shot nobody at all.
Geordie's got a pistol
it's for self defence
but he didn't pull the trigger
he commited no offence.
Don't want to be Sylvester Stallone - don't push me

There's nothing more exciting than reciting Shakespeare
Fred Olivier, to be or not to be
Fred Olivier, all for my equity
Don't want to go to Hollywood
I sit alone and play the wood
I quoth Othello and I feel wick
I'm the only one who understands what I speak
I tread the boards till it make me scream
But it was only a Midsummer Nights Dream,
There's more to life than a Shakespearean clone

May I always listen to the anniversary waltz with you
Is this just a dream come true
an anniversary wish for you
May this be the answer to all future years
millions of heartaches and a few little tears.
Out in the courtyard, cold & it's so hard
Now Betty's crying, she wants to die
Coz it's over, die, but she...
Knows that her grieving, it's not achieving
What Bet's believing, he will return
Alecs gone, Alecs gone, Alecs gone
Alecs gone, Alecs gone, Alecs gone
Away oo oo oo gone away oo oo ooo
Down in The Rovers, Bet can't get over
What he said to her, he will return
Alecs gone...

Out for the day that he will return
He'll never know why he let Betty go
through the tears, he threw the years away, oh
So long ago and he still needs her so
Alec's back oh, but Betty's gone
And I'm so blue, and I can't see
What I can do, Betty.
Dark and its cold with no Betty to hold
In the Rovers, its all over now, oh
Too late to know, if she still needs him so
Alec's back oh, but Betty's gone
And I'm so blue
and I can't see

Alec's come home but Alec's still alone
No pretending it's the ending now, oh
We'll never know more of this tale of woe
coz Alec's back oh, but Betty's gone

Alfie, can see
Johnny and Freddie outside the Bronx

happy with this memory
And it's all echoes, where Alfie goes
the Bronx is in his head
Alfie's home is through, the life he knew

Alfie, sadly

now he, can't see
himself ever being happy
Alfie's home in the Bronx

Alfie, now he
Johnny and Freddie remember the Bronx
and the family
Jimmy lives his life for charity
Jimmy's got no wife just an O.B.E.
Everybody depends on Jimmy

But Jim'll Fix It's to be done

Then that bleedin' Great North Run
The Great North Run

Somebody's sponsoring Jim again
So Jimmy bites his tongue & counts to ten
"Oh stuff this" Jimmy snarles
Coz when you're Jimmy Saville...
For James there's no time off, Jimmy's in deep
For James there ain't no sleep
When you're...

Yesterday, Huey's lips were smiling
Yesterday, when Huey was around
She would never have no fear
when she knew Huey was ere'
She still hears the sound...
Yesterday, Huey's voice a calling
Yesterday, Help me Huey cries
The day that Huey dies.
When the night grows cold and the wind blows cruelly A HA
then bitting lonely chill goes through me
And it feels so bad, so sad that OOEEE A HA
Shes never gonna have what she had with Huey.
Yesterday, She & Huey laughing
Yesterday, a life with Huey's charms
a life in Huey's arms
and the night grows cold...
Yesterday, Huey's heart was beating
Yesterday, she still had Huey
Yesterday, she will keep repeating
Yesterday, 'Bring Huey back to me'
'Bring me back Huey'
We fight fot the Queen & country & we're back here again
OVER THE HILLS TO THE BATTLEFIELD 10 THOUSAND MARCHING MEN
We never say surrender butnow we must admit
SHOVE THE ROTTEN REGEMENT WE'RE OFF ON A MOONLIGHT FLIT
HO TALLY HO! THE BATTLE CRY OH! WE'RE OFF DOWN THE PUB
HO TALLY HO! A PINT & DECENT GRUB.
Down in the valley we can see
THE MEN MARCHING FOR VICTORY
We'll skip the blood on the battlefield
STUUF ALL THE BRAVERY... COZ WE QUIT THE CAVALRY.
We're shot injured & wounded, they call us men of war
IT'S TOO NOISY & DIRTY & WE CAN'T TAKE NO MORE
No bath or battlefield shower & people say we're brave
BUT NOW WE'RE GONNA DO A BUNK FOR A DECENT WASH N' SHAVE
HO TALLY HO!....
SHOOT DON'T SHOOT This is not the life for me
SHOOT DON'T SHOOT It's not my cup o' tea.
Kick his head, smash his face & do a bunk with his brief case
Shoplifting for a lark, walk on the grass in the park
In the restaurant loads o' nosh, stuff yer face & leave no dosh
We are skint but we're alright, a different burglary each night
NO LITTLE BLUE LIGHT, THERE'S NOT A COPPER IN SIGHT NO MORE..
You can commit any crime you please
YOU WON'T GET NICKED IN SUNDERLAND, THE COPPERS ARE SOFTIES
They hide when there's a thief or rogue at large
WHEN THEY GET HIT THEY RUN & TELL THE SARGE... A BUNCH O' FAIRIES
Rob a bank, get some bread or be a pickpocket instead
A torch a swag bag with a crow bar, gettaway in a stolen car
Break in to the town hall, spray graffiti on the wall
If you're drunk and disorderly, then Sunderland's the place to be
YOU WON'T GET ME, DOWN WERSIDE CONTABULARY
Run Buck naked in the street, there ain't a bobby on the beat
Raid the local jewellery store, no one to stop you break the law
When I met you, I thought how sweet,
My lonely life would now be complete
If only I knew, have I no brain?
You're a two faced tramp, driving me insane.
[Chorus:]
Dearest darling, I leave this note for you
A love letter with sincerity
Dearest darling, I leave this note for you
Get out o'my life, get out o'my life
Coz I...loathe you
You smiled at me, she smiled at him
My heart melted, his heart melted
This was the real thing, this was the real thing
I'm besotted, he's besotted
What a nincompoop, you're the devil in a frock
I'm a naive nugget, and you made me a laughing stock
[Chorus]
[Guitar Time / Chorus].
I've got a little brother his christian name is Sid,
Ever since he saw the turtles he's flipped his lid.
He's always scoffing pizzas just like Leonardo,
Donatello Raphael and Michaelangelo
Turtles, Turtles...
He loves the Teenage Turtles he's collecting all their stuff,
T-shirts, books and badges he can never get enough.
Spending every penny on all that he can find
If it has a turtle on, he's going out of his mind....
Turtle crazy, he's turtle mad,
The turtles they have taken away the little bit sense he had,
In a turtle outfit you really have to laugh,
He wears it every night and day and even in the bath.
He's acting like a madman, he's acting like a clown,
The Teenage Mutant Turtles are coming to our town.
He bought a plastic Turtle to keep up with the trend,
He dropped it down the toilet now he's going round the bend....
Tutles on his dressing gown and on the bedroom wall,
Turtles on his vest and his underpants and all....
Turtle crazy, he's Turtle mad,
The turtles they have taken away the little bit sense he had.
In a turtle outfit you really have to laugh,
I'd have a hysterectomy, I'd have a blood transfusion
I'd even have a vasectomy, with no trousers on
Spend a month in the infirmary, operate on me night & day
But my dentures disappear everytime I hear them say
Psycho, psychosurgery
Let me out, Let me out
Dumped in the dentists chair
Psyiiicho surgery, psiiicho surgery
Let me out, Let me out
I'm in agony, I must be dumb, I should'na come
To the psychosurger, psychosurgery
I'd have a leg amputated, you can pull my appendix out
Fix a foot that's dislocated, I'll say I felt nowt
Acupuncture ain't no problem, bravery's my middle name
But I just can't face that lang filling place again
Psycho, psychosurgery
I'll never set foot down that dental nutters lane...again
Nobby was a soldier, a life in the Army
Margarets back home alone waiting suspiciously
She can't hide the misery, the upset & despair
When she found out Nobby had been having it off elsewhere
There's Eric & there's Robby & there's Derrick & there's Bobby
They gave her the elbow
There's Harry & there's Willy & there's Barry & there's Billy also
Whose that then?
Woe is me, I'm melancholy Margaret, I fret coz they leave me
God help me I'm melancholy. Snurree?!
Tommy was a driver he worked on the buses
"I've got some overtime to do" this is what he says
But Margaret wasn't having it, she searched high & low
But Tommy's gone he's neckin' on in the back of the bus depot
There's Ronnie & there's Kenny & there's Donny & there's Denny
they gave her the elbow.
There's Ronnie & there's Timmy & there's Micky & there's Jimmy also
Whose that then?
Woe is me...
A thousand streets of 2 bedroom semis
We always dreamed that we,d have one o'these
Oh what a pity they were built by Wimpey's
That common lot drove us round the bend
so we moved up to Durham's posh end
The likes of us don't need no council dives
This is the sound of our sorry lives
Livin' on newt on hall, Livin' on newt on hall
Where would we beif not here
Livin' on newt on hall, Livin on newt on hall
Where would we beif not here now.
Oi! Look what I've got, a new Mondeo
I polish it but it's only for show
I tell myself that were middle cla(r)ss
He walks around with his head up his arse
Livin' on newt on hall...
Newton Hall, Newton Hall
Newt on Hall
Gotta get away from
Newt on Hall
Right Now.
A thousand streets of shoe box semis
Its a nightmare livin' in one o'these
We never dreamed it would end up like this
This housing estate just takin' the piss
Livin' on newt on hall...
T was only yesterday that we arrived in Palma
Ever since then our love life has been a farce
Pursued and wooed by that
sun tanned Majorca charmer
Now she thinks the sun shines
out his spanish arse
Of course I knew that somebody was
bound to meet her
but tell me why did she have to pick Charles Atlas
Is it just because coz he calls her Senorita
or did the bast ard teach her grasias?
I've had enough, I've had enough o'Magaluf,
I've had enough ooo Me Too
I know, I know
To stick around, to stick around to stick around
would make me blue
Too blue
I've had enough o Magaluf, enough o'Megaluf and you AAOO
Now everytime he walked by the swimming pool
She stared at me and said why can't I look like that
Ih what a sucker, a skinny fool,
as she sat pining for that Spanish prat.
Morning night and afternoon
She'd nick off down the blue lagoon
She was with that brionze baboon again.
Now I could see them neckin' on from the balcony
I've been a mug, I might o'know, the scheming skunks
Theres nuthin' goin' on she's conned me
Coz she had her hands inside his swimmin' trunks
Harry's hands are hands of mystery
Connected to all calamities
Harry's hands are hands of mystery
They're accused of all burgiaries
Harry's hands ain't what they used to be
Harry's hands can't take anymore
Harry's hands are hands of honesty
It's a tragedy
And nobody understands,that Harry's
handcuffed hands falsely accused, He's confused
They made Harry's life hell, locked Harry in a cell
And put the blame, they put the blame on...
Harry's hands oo oo Harry's hands oo oo
Harry's hands ain't what they were before
The coppers call Harry a criminal
Honest Harry, he never broke the law
It's a tragedy
Judge:"Harold Hands, you are an habitual criminal,
I therefore sentence you to 125 years imprisonment"
Oh I can't forget a girl I knew
H.O.'s her name, I bet
there's no one else to blame
for I used to be an easy going man
but now I'm the one of the millions
that she's made feel the same
Oh she's a stick of dynamite
she will go go go
and if you meet her one fine night
you'll know......that
H.O. I told you so
when she gets a hold of you
she never lets go
H.O. your mind will blow
destroy the human race
H.O. I told you so
when she gets a hold of you
she never lets go
H.O.H.O.H.O.
Oh she is going to rule the world
H.O.'s got
the determination and power in her hands
so look out for a blue flash in the sky
blue baby
haleys comet hasn't got a look in now
Oh I am warning you stay clear of
H.O.'s electric danger
to the like of you and me
I've been frightened to do what I say
you'd better lock your door
Frederick Street was on the news tonight
outside Fosters club had been a fight
and everytime you go to dig the beat
you will hear a yelp and somebody shouting for help...
Hello, hello, hello, hello, who's down there?

Hello, hello, hello, hello, who's down there?

in the fisticuffs in Frederick Street
I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be, you don't wanna be,

Fosters club was full up to the brim
everybody risking life and limb
and just to go and pose at the disco
but posing wasn't easy and the D.J.
he got queasy, blow by blow...
Everything's silent on Frederick Street
a lonely policeman walks the beat...
before long everybody'll know
that Fosters club is not the place to go
unless you want your head kicking in
If you're down and you're sick,
and you want her out quick,
but you don't know the trick what to do,
she'll be laughing at you,
if you don't have a clue
show that you have grew up and shout...
we are thru and say...
DO YOU want to finish OR WHAT?,
I've just about had MY LOT,
I can't take this from you,
I'M FED up now because she said,
I don't know what to do...
You've got to be a man,
kick her out while you can,
get a re-moval van booked for her,
tell her to take her stuff,
it's time now to be tough,
you've had about enough
and don't want to suffer any more,
A fortnight is long ee
nough for her to agree,
to decide just what she wants to do,
if by then she does not
you've got to start n plot,
just where when to do and what,
Bowling Barmy, oo oo
She's got bowling blues
Bowling socks, bowling shoes
Bowling night & day Hey
She waits miserably
Down the bowling alley
He's a bowling junky
Bowls his life away
Always, always, he's off with the bowling team
Always, always, bowling to the extreme
Bowling, bowling, bowling Barmy
They yell yikes at his spares & strikes
Champ, I'm the champion
Bowling, bowling, bowling Barmy
Ten Pins down, the bowling crown
& a medal with a skittle on
Bowling Barmy
Boasting bowler, don't care
I've got trophies everywhere
He's too much to bear
Bowling barmy...
Bowling Bowling Bowling Bowling Bowling Bowling Bowling
Was it something that I spilt on my new continental quilt or what?

Was it coz the chocolate sweets I ate last night between the sheets or what?
What could it be that made me frown, the biscuit crumbs on my night gown or what?
A nit in neen of nourishment, it got inside the bed & went for me.
Was it coz I was dirty that it took a fancy to me or what?
I jumped up sweating with fright, oh will it take another bite or what?

INCOME TAX THIEF KNOWN AS KEN DODD
Lock him up dump Doddy in the nick
A GREEDY PIG WITH A TICKLING STICK
Not content in the super tax bracket
1/2 a mill in the pocket of his jacket
He climbed up stairs to hide away the bread
1/2 a million smackers under Ken's bed.
OO OO OO He dodged the Inland Revenue
A Liverpudlian with loads o' loot
He didn't declare it, he didn't give a hoot!

Stop and take a look at yourself for a while
And you'll know it's time to say
Cheerio, cheerio
Toodle pip, toodle pip
This is our last goodbye
Don't cry
Cheerio, cheerio
Toodle pip, toodle pip
Our last farewell, goodbye.
Sitting watching Coronation street
You decide to put your feet up, just about comfy in your seat
And she says, I'm feeling hungry
If she sends you out for a bag of fish'n'chips
You'll know it is time to say...
Need a bit of shut eye so you lie on the couch
She is yapping in the background
Baby's things wedding rings
It's not for you, she will never keep her mouth shut
You have to tell her now, once and for all
When I was young my father said "Son I have something to say,"
and what he told me I'll never forget, until my dying day. He said, "Son you are a bachelor boy
and that's the way to stay, son you are a bachelor boy:"
-huh- I wish I was a bloody bachelor boy
A happy ba-che-lor was he,
But he ain't no more gone is Garry
As he ditched, when he got hitched to a witch and a bitch called melanie
Who's that then - Garry
Slouched on the couch with that cow,
There ain't any doubt there's no escape
Now off his head, concerted
Instead he wed, Melanie
He said, "I only wanted to stay"
But the silly sucker, drained his life away
"I only wanted to be"
and he took no notice of me
and it's all over now -huh- for Garry
The bag nagged/asked to have a kid
The most * that Garry ever did
Stuck in a rut, he knows he's a nut, with a pain in th butt called Melanie
Off his head, off his *
It's not the first time somebody has ahd the flu,
Remember when you had toothache...
A hot lemsip will help the sneezing so,
You will have to stay happy...
Remember...
Worse things happen at sea,
Keep dreaming of better days...
Keep dreaming of better days...
I know it's crap when there's something in your eye,
Think yourself lucky you've not got a bad back,
It's pretty sore when you have a mouth ulcer,
But you have got to stay happy...
I know it's sad when your face is acne,
But don't be put off by some yellow spots,
So you got a toe nailthat his growing in,
Victory if Glenda she, had a baby, oooeee,
Things were looking gloomy and Glenda she was sad,
Kevin had been out with Carol Sands,
But Glenda she though surely,
It can't be that bad, if I had a baby,
Glenda went round to the doctors the next day,
You can't have a baby, that's what he said,
Glenda did not give up she's got this book to read,
Of how to have a test tube baby....
Glenda's Dad had just died and she was unhappy,
If only she could have a baby,
So to the disapproval of Kevin and his mam,
Frankie says that he's got vertigo
He says this everytime he leaves the pub, blotto.
Backaches, bellyaches, earaches & migrains
Frankie's life is misery & full of aches n' pains.
FRANKIE'S GOT THE BLUES.. FRANKIE'S NEUROTIC, HE'S ALWAYS FEELING PIG SICK
FRANKIE'S GOT THE BLUES.. YOU WILL HAVE TO EXCUSE, FRANKIE'S GOT THE BLUES
Frankie sneezes once then goes to bed
"I've got double pneumonia" Frankie said
Frankie lives in the doctors surgery
Everytime he has a shave he waits in casualty
"They say I am a hypercondriac", CONDRIAC CONDRIAC
"But I have got Yellow fever, that's a fact"
A blue bottle landed on Frankie's head, FRANKIE'S HEAD... FRANKIE'S HEAD
You tell me, I'm not good e
nough for you, what can I do?
shiddle iddle ay shiddle iddle oh,
I got so sick I told a Vic

I ever thought, that I would be court
ing with you, but it's true
shiddle iddle ay shiddle iddle oh,
but it went bad because her dad
he saw me with her you see,
I closed my eyes, drew back the curtain
To see for certain, what I thought I knew
Far far away, someone was weeping
But the world was sleeping, any dream will do
I wore my coat, with golden lining
Bright colours shinning, wonderful & new
And in the East, the dawn was breaking
The world was waking, any dream will do
A crash of drums, a flash of light
My golden coat flew outta sight
The colours faded into darkness, I was left alone
May I return, to the beginning
The light is dimming, and the dream is too
The world & I, we are still waiting
Still hhhhesitating, any dream will do
There's a fella from a film
reminds me of Duncan Goodewe
but he's not a proper skinhead
cause he hasn't got a tattoo
He's not as wise as he seems
coz he's just an actor
he's a dunce, I've never seen
him on the Krypton Factor
We all rinse in Silvercrin
to keep our head clean
but we know that Yul's not
a common human being
coz he uses Mr Sheen...
Yul Brynner, Yul Brynner,
they say he's a skinhead
but we know that it's a lie
Yul Brynner, Yul Brynner
he is just a baldy geezer
from the Kink & I,
Yul BBBBB Brynner
Yul Brynner was a skinhead
they said on the News,
but I've never seen Yul Brynner
wearing Doctor Martens shoes
His only claim to fame was that
he had a shiney nut
But I would look just the same
if I had my hair cut
Oh! I woke up with a backache
Backache! Backache!
I thought I ought to go to the first aid tin
Where I found something for my backache
Backache! Backache!
I rubbed in some cream and started to scream! Oh no!!!
Firey Jack Firey Jack- It's red hot on your back
Firey Jack Firey Jack- Believe me it does knack
Firey Jack Firey Jack- It's red hot on your back
Firey Jack
Now I had a back ache on me backache
Backache Backache!
I jumped into the bath full of cold water
The firey Jack had made me backache
Backache Backache!
I'm worse than before I can't take anymore
Oh no!!!
Oh! If you do get a backache
Backache backache!
And you feel you have to reach for the first aid tin
Think! Life is not that bad with a backache
If you see a tin with firey Jack in
Stay awayyyyy...

All our mates that we once knew said they were happy,
Always shouting in the street, just like you and me,
Always finding laughter, fun and games to play,
They of course have to agree,
Suddenly they were swept off their feet and gone,
They don't know what hit them,
Just like the rest, the girlfriends got the best,
And so the story just goes on...
They all get washed for them, even have a bath,
But they are now being led, up the garden path...
I was sitting in the sun reading the days press,
A boy that I once knew was in, I've never seen such a mess
Smiling with a moustache, a suit, a shirt and tie,
He had just been wed today,
I could not help but laugh, what's got into him?
He looks about fourty,
He's been such a nit, now he's in for it,
And soon you'll hear him say...
I was lying on the beach licking cool ice cream,
A man, a wife and a pram went by, it was like a dream,
He was climbing apple trees just a moon ago,
The kind of bloke you think, won't grow,
His face is like a fiddle now, long and sad and blue,
He still says he's happy,
He must have gone mad, cos he's not the lad,
Hey! hey! hey! hey!
There's a motor store at the top of Hylton Road

and in the office there sits a secretary she's got
Long blonde hair,

I saw her in Tommy Kowey's car
I saw her in Tommy Kowey's car

At the motor store he was there last Tuesday night

At the motor store Mr Tommy Koweys gotta

but now she tells lies, she was havin dinner out
The grub was vile, we couldn't crack a smile
WE PAID TWENTY SMACKERS JUST TO SAIL UP THE NILE

TO GET STUCK INSIDE A PPPPPYRAMID.
I'd rather be in Hawaii, CLEETHORPES OR SOUTHEND
You won't catch us on the Egypt bus again again again.
The... Sphinx stinks, Sphinx stinks
THEY DO NOT CARE ON EGYPT AIR
Sphinx stinks, Sphinx stinks
IN CAI I I I RO
The Sphinx stinks, Sphinx stinks
YOU WILL GET RIPPED OFF IN EGYPT OH!
The hotel room filled us with gloom
WE SHOULD O' SPENT THE NIGHT IN A MUMMY'S TOMB
A camel ride...
ANOTHER TEN SMACKERS AND A NUMB BACKSIDE.
I'd rather be...
Makes me grin makes me laugh too
makes me sad makes me blue
when I remember Nobby who,
danced a gig for me and you
to see the smiles of Nobby's styles
I weren't no football fan till he
Dove Ken Driddley, on TV
Mesmerized by the mastery of wee nimble Nobby
just a dream it all seemed so far away
the world took heed, and Nobby's team would pay
Nobby, in our memory
hear them yell and hear them call
Nobby, in our memory
hear them shout and hear them roar
ooooooohh, the memory, of Nobby lives on
we stayed home that day to see England vs Germany
always in the memory, the sucker styles of Nobby
to feel the thrills from his stills, was uncanny
The devil went down to georgia, looking for a soul to steal
In a bind an' way behind he was willin' to make a deal.
He came across this young man bowen' on a fiddle, playing it hot an'
An' the devil jumped on a hickory stump an' said 'I'll tell ya what'
I guess you didn't know it, I'm a fiddle player too,
and if you care to take a dare I make a bet with you.
Now you play a real good fiddle boy, but give the devil his due,
I'll bet a fiddle of gold against you soul 'cause i think i'm better then you.
The boy said my name's Johnny, it might be a sin, i'll take your bet
You're gonna regret, I'm the best I've ever been.
Johnny rosen up your bow an' play your fiddle hard
'cause hell's broke loose in georgia an' the devil deals the cards.
Now if you win you'll get this shinny fiddle made of gold,
but if you loose the devil gets your soul!
The devil opened up his case and said 'i'll start this gig'
and fire flew from his finger tips as he rosened up his bow.
He slaped the bow across the strings it made an evil hiss
Then a band of demons joined in and it sounded somthing like this
When the devil finished Johnny said 'You're pretty good ol' son,
but sit down in that chair right there let me show you how it's done!'
Fire on the mountain run boy's run!
Devil's in the house of the risen sun!
Chicken in the bread pan picken out dough!
Granny does your dog bite, no child, no!
The devil bowed his head because he knew that he'd been beat,
and he laid that golden fiddle on the ground at Johnny's feet.
Johnny said 'devil just come on back if you ever want to try again,
I done told you once you son of a gun i'm the best I've ever been!'
Fire on the mountain run boy's run!
Devil's in the house of the risen sun!
Chicken in the bread pan picken out dough!
Terry is a recluse, he's a misfit
Terry never goes out, he's a hermit
A lonely lonely dude
Terry won't answer the phone or the door
& we don't see Terry no more
No-one can contact Terry anymore
A life of solitude
Hello.... this is Terry talking
Terry talking, talking all alone
Hello... this is Terry Talking
on the answer phone... Terry's not at home
Terry is a plonker, Terry is a nut
Locked in the house with the curtains shut
No-one can contact Terry...
Hello...
Things do go wrong, it's not long since I've been blue,
But I know the remedy, I can see just what to do...
Don't be a coward, don't be yellow,
It always pays to be mellow,
Stay cool, stay free and then you will see,
It's best to stay mellow...
I was upset and in debt with no money,
But I did not stay sad, it's not that bad, so remember...
Oh if you are down in the town with no bus fare,
I was feeling blue, she made me feel guilty
When I took that trip to Deutscheland, Germany
She said I am a man, keep out of the Reeperbahn, mind you
Nick off is what I said, I'll please myself instead
& you can drop down dead, to Hamburg I am headed
I don't want no debates, now I'm off with me mates.
Toodle oo
I said stuff you!
Reeperbahn, the Reeperbahn, caught red handed...
Reeperbahn, the Reeperbahn, she said "Don't go there man"
Reeperbahn, the Reeperbahn, oh caught up the Reeperbahn
I told her to trust me, I agree in honesty
Believe me she did not, she knew I was a sex pot
I did not feel at ease when I left the strip-tease,
I screamed as she seized me!
It was just a laugh, I said don't be so strict
I did not tell her what went on up the red light district
You're all the same you men, you better say auf wiedersehen
Coz you won't be comin" here again!
Reeperbahn...
Caught up the Ree...
I was getting dressed late one night
along came a spider and I got a fright
oh I could not squash it flat
No matter how I tried,
And when it looked me in the eye
I ran away to hide...
I put on me Doctor Martin shoes
A battle with the spider that I wasn't gonna loose
A kick from the left a kick from the right
I was on the floor but I was alright
It was gonna be a long long night
Spiders in the dressing room
Spiders everywhere
Spider in the dressing room beware
Things were getting hot and I had to take a chance
The spider got impatient
Started crawling up me pants
I shook it off me legthump it hit the ground
Everything was silent so I didn't make a sound
I crossed the room as happy as can be
I had killed the spider now it couldn't bother me
But with me arm on the light
He was there ready for a fight
It was gonna be a long long night.
It was getting late and the spider wasn't dead
An audience had gathered round
AndI was going red
I put a jam jar on the floor
the spider crawled inside it
I screwed the lid back on the top
And threw the jar outside
At a party late that night
Everything was bright and gay
We played all our pop records and danced the night away,
Early in the morning came a knocking at the door
I opened it slowly guess what I saw
Rant n' rave, don't give a toss, show the snobs next who's boss
Turn the volume to size ten, they 'll never speak to you again
Sod the Sod the Sod the
Sod the Sod the Sod the
Sod the neighbours, we're not proud,
turn it up loud, turn it up loud
Sod the neighbours, don't pack it in,
drive "em mad with the bleedin' din
Party all night, don't care less,
show them that you mean business
Scream, cause turmoil & get yer neighbours blood to boil!
Sod the neighbours...
RODNEY REMEMBER ME, RODNEY REMEMBER ME....
SHE HAUNTS RODNEY'S MEMORY
Rodney gave Sheila a slap when she begged him not to drink
"Mind yer own damn bussiness" Rodney snarled, he didn't think
Now everything from then is blurred but Rodney can't forget those words
She cried....
Now Rodney was a slob, he treat Sheila just like muck
"Move yourself" he growled and dragged her to his pick-up truck
He looped the loop in a drunken stuper down the mountain side
When Sheila cried.....
OH! Rodney took her in his arms and through the broken glass
He climbed out of the wreckage & he lay her on the grass
He had too many beers, but he couldn't hide the tears
Oh quarter to five we were barely alive

Grinning, grinning, always winning, he never thought he would be poor
Now he's locked up, locked up, locked up, locked up, Doing time in...
Lookin' out a dirty old window, down below the cars in the city go rushing by
We sit here with no dosh and wonder why?
Should we catch the bus to Newcastle, we can't be bothered with the hassle
going down, to search for some bread in this dirty town.
DOWN DOWN IT REALLY IS NO JOKE, DOWN TOWN EVERYBODY IS BROKE...
WE'RE THE KIDS IN TYNE & WEAR WOOO
WE'RE THE KIDS IN TYNE & WEAR WOOO
EVERYBODY LIVES IN THE HOPE O' SOME CASH!
Bright light & music gets faster, in the disco we can't afford to have a dance
We could never pay two quid, not a chance
Pig sick, down the Job Center, much later we will be thinking never mind
you know life is cruel, life is never kind.
FIND TIME TO EARN AN EXTRA BOB, FIND TIME TO DO A FIDDLE JOB.
... NA NA NA....
Looking round the Metro Centre, gotta get a brand new experience feeling rich
We can't stop, we're skint and we've got the itch.
Sunderland South Shields & Gateshead, not a bleedin' chance to make bread
anywhere, We don't want to go baby.
Looking at her reflection,
Ivy thought, I'll shock Don
When I get my face lift, when I get my face lift done,
You'll see, Don is gonna want to snog with me
But they all grimace, an insult to the human race
A wifey with Mick Jagger's face
Lurid lips, Ivy's...lurid lips Ivy's
Ivy's, Ivy's lips are a bleedin' disgrace
Lurid lips, Ivy's...lurid lips Ivy's
Ivy Brennans gotta chipmunks
Ivy's lips gotta chipmunks face
Ivy took the chance
Ordered her lip implants
Now she worships her kingsize lips
But her three grand gob
Cost Ivy her job
Now Ivy's lost her loot
Ivy is destitute
Ivy's lips got Ivy the boot

I don't need a doctor, I don't need a drugstore
I don't need an injection, I need to put the telly on.
Got me in a cold sweat, I don't need no cigarette
Sh sh sh shakin' like a jelly fish, I need a satellite dish
There's no doubt that I miss nowt, a TV I can't do without
Anything you get on yer television set I'll watch it...

Telly I'm a telly, I can tell I am addicted

Telly I'm a telly, I can tell I am addicted
I like to keep a step ahead, a TV in the garden shed
& with a telly in the bog, I never miss the epilogue
Dynasty or Daktari, a broadcast by the Tory party
Celebrity squares, blind date, who cares, I'll watch it...
I'm a telly...
It's no surprise I've got square eyes, anyone could predict
I'm TV mad, I'm a telly addict!
I'm a man in great pain, the box is on the blink again
I don't need no morphine, I need a television screen
Documentaries, there's no degrees, I'll even watch a film

A speech from the Queen, though I'm not very keen. I'll

Here we go again, down to Griefsville, yah
I'm sneezing, I'm wheezing, I'm freezing
I'm outside with no coat on
I turned the lights on, where she'd been
She's with him, she'll kiss him, now it's grim
Again for me I'll, In the meanwhile
Just cry my blues away
I go down, down, down, down,
To Griefsville
Oh sitting on the windowsill
I got sick, I got ill
I've got no more time to kill
cause I am in Griefsville
Oh, I am red, got a bad head
cause she said, she can't see me
I'm upset, cause I can't get what I want
why should she, how could she
not see me, today I'm gloomy
She's threw me, out and I'm blue again
Gaahhh, I'm blue, Gaahhh, what can I do
Too much nosh & too much booze
He spent all night in the bog with the blues
An aching head, intoxicated
He didn't even know he was constipated
He forced & he frowned, he pushed & he stained
But on the toilet seat he remained
He let out a shout as he passed out
& his gut was rearranged
No walks in the park, no drinks, no grub
He can't embark on a trip to the pub
He sits in the dark, and says don't trouble me
No one sees he's a ruptured man
He can't sneeze like you normally can
They're all mean, they're all riff raff
He turns green when they make him laugh
Ernie had a. Ernie had a...
Hernia, a hernie
Ernie had a. Ernie had a...
Hernia, a hernie...
He had a hernia
He can't stand up, her can't lie flat
The torment in his tummy preventing that
He can't sit down, can't go anywhere
The devil in his belly proving too much to bear
He can't go out & he can't stay in
Oh what's it all about? He just can't win
No chance of a bath or to see the lavatory for him
Ernie had a...
Ernie never smiles & he dare not grin
An aggravating abdomen wearing him thin
Ernie had a hernia but he did not give in
Ernia had a...
He's a trainspotter, hes an anorak
He's a nerd, you've heard the word, a dork, a maniac
He's a pratt, hes a geek, a freak, he's one o'those
squarest tassers in the street, n' everbodys knows
It's...
DORKAMANIA, HE'S GOININSANIA
I NEVER MET A MORON WHO IS MORE MUNDANIA
DORKAMANIA, HE'S GOTT A BE BRAINIA
BUT WHAT'S HE GONNA DO WHEN HE GETS THERE
COZ IT'S ALL
DORKAMANIA
In Ornathology, hes got a PHD

Grand world class chess champions,

He's a bore, I've said before, AND WE ALL AGREE
It's... dorkamania
He's absurd, there ain't a bird I've heard
that he can pull
They say he's facinatin' till they date him,
then they hate him
We've never met a bloke so dull.
So the silly sad get's surfin' on the internet
Hes out to find Arsehole mate, He's found nobody yet
is there anybody out there, that will be my pal?
I don't need a nutter, just somebody abnormal
It's
Friday night is bath night this is what they say
We are gonna dig the groove, we've waited all day
We wear trendy trousers with belts a mile too long
We are gonna catch the bus into the town
We are boogie on down...
Dig that groove ba-a-by
Dig dig dig dig digga that groove baby.
There they are again covered in Old Spice
They think they will get the girls cause
they smell nice,
They all call me riff raff
'Coz I wear a Crombie
I couldn't stand it being just like them
they all look like puffs not men
See that trendy there she used to be a punk
Now she's off to the disco to listen to junk
Her boyfriend was a skinhead
He used to shout Oi! Oi!
Play that funky music that's what they say now
"David Man, yer hav'n't finished yer tea"
"It doesn't matter, I can't wait to drive my XR2"
"Oh David, don't drive fast David"
"See ya!"
"David, David...DAVID!"
I don't wanna be alive, if I ain't on the road
Wheels off the ground the speed o'sound, stuff the Highway Code
Electric windows down, sound system, size ten
What a prat they say "That boys racers back again"
The engine soared as he got fasta
He bought a Ford Fiesta
He can't wait to accelerate
In his jet car, X R...2
I never leave my XR2, of that there ain't no fear
The only time, is when I'm watching Top Gear
40 fog lamps on the front, twin spoilers, I agree
The meanest man on the Autobahn, nobody gets past me
The engine soared as he got fasta
He bought a Ford Fiesta
Upside down, the wheels spun round
On his jet car, XR...2
Old Jackie's gone to sea,
Jackie's gone oh Jackie's gone to sea,
where will he be? when will we see?
Old Jackie at home on land from sea...
A secret mission he's been on
he's not been fishin' like they all say,
it's all hush hush
don't make a fuss,
and they all rush to say...
Jackie's been on a holiday a million miles away,
Jackie's back, we hope that Jackie stays,
We won't know when Jackie goes,
and he won't hear us say,
come back Jackie, come back Jackie ooh today...
Since Jackie went to sea
they've heard nothing since he went to sea,
where's Jackie, where can he be?
Cloughy's lads are full o' gloom, coz Cloughy's in the changin' room

He screams & yells & just because, Cloughy knows that he's the boss
Cloughy's rough & tough Cloughy's barmy
Cloughy's in a huff & tense, Cloughy's teeth begin to clench
A Cloughy fan asks for his autograph... "Can yer sign this Brian?"
He nuts him first & smacks him next, nobody makes Cloughy vexed

Charlie was a loafer, Charlie was a lout, huh
But Charlie was the only bloke she ever cared about.
Each night when she's alone, Charlies there
Charlie was an arse, and they said he didn't care
But Charlie had a heart, now with her everywhere.
She always swears she knows that hes there
and from her bed echoes Charlie's prayer
'Charlies watching over me
Charlies watching, I can see
Charlie watching
over me'
They said he was a tramp a vagabond in a vest.
Charlie Charlie
But Charlie was the business
and she says he was the best.
And from her bed... Charlie's watching
Charlie was a lout, but a hoboe
But Charlie was saint and he's our hero.
She always said she...
la, la, la, la, la
she's so 20th century, she's so 1970's
she know the right things to say, she got the right clothes to wear
cause she's a modern girl, oh yeah
a modern girl, ga, ga, ga, ga, ga
a modern girl, oh yeah
and suzie is a jewel, she flashes when she smiles
she's cunning and she's clever, she's got the low down in her flies
magenta is the best, you know she really makes me laugh
i gotta say now
la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
and jean confided to me, she's mona lisa's biggest fan
she drew a moustache on her face, she's always seen her as a man
and charlie ain't no nazi, she likes to wear her leather boots
cause it's exciting for the veterans and it's a tonic for the troops
rod could not live with or live without... you
you were rodney's life and his worst fear
for the day that no one cared about... you
rod died a penniless puppeteer
no one knew what you were goin' through
destitute, broke and blue, there's nothing that we could
to save rod or emu, eeoo, eeoo, eeoo
rod meant nowt unless you came along... too
he was up the spout without his bird
then they said that rod was dead
you changed his life and never said a word
there's only rodney only who
had suffered more than you
melancholy rodney, exhausted emu
it all went wrong for rod he, died alone with you
for the day that no one...
Down on the street where kevin's house stands
You'll never meet none of his soft pans- y kids there
They're nowhere to be seen.
He's keeps them locked indoors all day
Nobody knocks no more to play, with kevs kids
Coz hes got them hidden away.
We get bullied on the bus
Too cowardly to discuss
Were kevin's kids us
Chorus
We are, cry babies, they're softies coz kevin
We are, cotton wool kids, cotton wool kids, cotton wool kids, cotton wools kids,
They're sissys, coz what he's wrapped them in.
Comics and cds no chance when
Watching the tvs forbidden, he says blue-
Peters too violent.
He follows them to the bog and back
A mollicoddling maniac, soft as crap
Cotton wool wrapped by kevin.
davey, wakes wearing a frown, he knows that she's

dave the nut made a big mistake, when he cut the
wedding cake
we all said at your peril, but davey wed a she devil

his days were gone, the gormless goon, when he went on
his honeymoon
grief and pains, davey says, is what remains of davey's
Maggie thatcher don't scare me, even though she's a tory
Alistair darlings a con, still i watch him when the budgets on
He's a moron, he's monotonous, gormless gordon bores the pants off us....
Chorus:
Norman tebbit, give him credit, neil kinnock he knew
Gordon, gordon
Tony blair, its only fair, there's nothing he could do
Gordon, gordon
Gordon makes me yawn, woooo, gordon gets me down, woooo
And now we've had enough of gordon, boring, boring gordon brown.
Cameron he made no sense, at the party con, conference
He's a nerd and he's a creep, least he doesn't send me to sleep
Hes a moron....
Chorus
Guitar bit
Id rather listen to than not, an interview with john prescott
Tedious and dull no less, whatever boring gordon says
Hes a moron
He, decca, told me, decca said he wont be drinkinâ
We, know it aint true, decca aint foolinâ me or you
At the bar, deccas here, heâ s gone too far. I need another beer
A goon, a nut, a liver shot gut
Till ya get another round in heâ s gonna stay put
Chorus
Oh decca no, deccas doctor said
Stay away from the pub, think of tomorrow
Oh decca no, deccas drunk instead
Don't be dumb drunken decca don't die
He, deccaâ s possessed, heâ s george best, never sober

Half past ten, he cant stand up, pissed again, i need another sup
A sip, a drop, heâ s never gonna stop
Now the doctors dreadinâ decca when deccas on the pop.
Guitar etc
Don't be dumb drunken decca
Drunk dumb drunken decca

Molly marked the end
Of her rotten marriage
When she began to spend
Her time round the garage
A libido & lots
(Hey, hey, hey)
More than Elsie Tanners
Molly had the hots
For Kevin's tools ands spanners
The Devil with his dungarees on
Kevin was giving Molly one
Everywhere that Tyrone goes
They say Molly’s wicked
Since Kevin had his leg over
And everyone that Tyrone
Knows call Kevin his best pal
And she was immoral Molly
Molly had her plans
Hey, hey, hey
Brazenly got the balls
To get her filthy hands,
Inside Kevin's overalls
She went in a huff
Started being grumpy
Coz she was up the duff
From having Rumpy Pumpy
The Devil with his dungarees on
Kevin was giving Molly one
Everyone that Tyrone knows
Call Kevin is best pal
And she was immoral Molly
The Devil with his dungarees on
Kevin was giving Molly one
Everywhere that Tyrone goes
They say Molly’s wicked
Since Kevin had his leg over
And everyone that Tyrone
Knows call Kevin his best pal
And she was immoral Molly
Everywhere that Tyrone goes
They say Molly’s wicked
Since Kevin had his leg over
And everyone that Tyrone
Knows call Kevin his best pal
Marty's Mam forever smiling
She would always grin
Every time we called around
To see if Marty's in
Marty's Mam would answer the door
And with a smiling face
We remember Marty's Mam
The world was a better place
Seems like only yesterday
Marty turned to me to say
What could I do
If me Mam ever passed away?
On the night Marty's Mam died
In a mess, as you can guess
Marty's in a mess
But what can we do?
Marty's mortified
To get him through
We don't have a clue
Just what can we do? Marty!
Ya may be glum, ya may be down
Like I always am
But you'll be fine with a bottle of wine
And a word with Marty's Mam
Feeling blue not long ago
I gave Marty a call
And once I spoke with Marty's Mam
I didn't feel blue at all
Never a moan and never a groan
Never melancholy
Forever and ever
In Marty's memory
On the night Marty's Mam died
In a mess, as you can guess
Marty's in a mess
But what can we do?
Marty's mortified
To get him through
We don't have a clue
Just what can we do?
Seems like only yesterday
Marty turned to me to say
What could I do
If she ever passed away?
On the night Marty's Mam died
In a mess, as you can guess
Marty's in a mess
But what can we do?
Marty's mortified
To get him through
We don't have a clue
Just what can we do?
On the night Marty's Mam died
Ma-a-arty-y-y!
Marty's mortified
Ma-a-arty-y-y!
Marty
What can we do?
What can we do?

At the 29 bar on Fridays, always
Me and Mosey, there till closing time
Back in the day the 29 was mine
Arthur Gladwood, Dodgy Mad Pud
All the lads would disappear

A chilling wind blows so cold
And there's no hint of the Old 29

Don't drive your car up Draycott Avenue
If you do you'll regret it
An HGV will come the other way
You'll still be there next Pancake Tuesday
Staring up the ridgeway
Wishing you were home
With your feet up watching TV
Want to arrive in style, go an extra mile
Take the Fryent way instead
Don't drive your car up Draycott Avenue
If you do you'll regret it
Time it wrong
Catch the mums on the school run
You'll just sit there twiddling your thumbs
Watching Mum getting lairy
At the kids on the backseat
Pumped up on sugary snacks
It's much less stress, lighten your load
Take the Watford Road instead
Don't drive your car up Draycott Avenue
If you do you'll regret it
You'll get boxed in front and behind
They'll be out their cars
Exchanging hand signs
Air turning blue with a stream of abuse
But everybody's stuck so it's no use
It's much less stress, best clear your head
Best take the tube instead
Don't drive your car up Draycott Avenue
If you do you'll regret it
An HGV will come the other way
You'll still be there next Pancake Tuesday
Staring up the ridgeway
Wishing you were home
With your feet up watching TV
Clear your head, it's much less stress
Best take the tube instead
Clear your head it's much less stress
Best take the tube instead
easy come, easy go

bamboozled by a chinese bint, she milked me dry
and left... me skint
in a peking penthouse pad, with the bank account i once

she knew it but i didn't know that, i'd end up in a
council flat

cheatin' chick

The devil went down to Scunthorpe
Looking for a soul to steal
In a bind and way behind
He was willin' to make a deal
When he came across this young man
Pickin' on a guitar, playing it hot
And the devil jumped on a hickory stump
And said I'll tell ya what
I guess you didn't know it, I'm a guitar player too
And if you care to take a dare
I'll make a bet with you
Now you play a real good guitar boy
But give the devil his due
I'll bet a guitar of gold to get your soul
'Cause I think I'm better than you
The boy said my name's Johnny, it might be a sin
I'll take your bet, you're gonna regret
I'm the best that's ever been
Johnny resin up your pick and play your guitar hard
'Cause hell is here in Scunthorpe
And the devil deals the cards
Now if you win you'll get this shinny guitar made of gold
But if you loose the devil gets your soul
The devil opened up his case and said I'll start this gig
And fire flew from his finger tips as he resined up his pick
He strummed the pick across the strings
It made an evil hiss
Then a band of demons joined in
And it sounded something like this
When the devil finished
Johnny said you're pretty good ol' son
But sit down in that chair right there
Let me show you how it's done
Fire on the mountain run boys run
Devil's in the house of the risin' sun
Chicken in the bread pan pickin' out dough
Ready says you don't fight, no child, no
Let's go
The devil bowed his head
Because he knew that he'd been beat
He laid that golden guitar on the ground at Johnny's feet
Johnny said Devil come on back
If you ever want to try again
I told you once you son of a bitch
I'm the best I've ever been
Fire on the mountain run boys run
Devil's in the house of the risin' sun
Chicken in the bread pan pickin' out dough
Ready says you don't fight, no child, no
Let's go
Oh I never sneeze when you're around,
and you never think I have a cold,
but when I'm all alone I I Ityshoo I need,
you and a box of handkerchiefs...
My nose never runs when you're around,
and you never think I have the flu,
but when I really do I I Ityshoo I need,
you and a box of handkerchiefs...
I catch a cold easy
when I'm feeling sneezy,
what I really need's a box of handkerchiefs to please me
It's you I need, you and a box of handkerchiefs...
Everytime I go out I get the flu,
I'm okay one minute then I start sneezing again,
I sneeze here I sneeze there I'm always sneezing everywhere...
Oh I never sniff when you're around,
and you never think I'm really ill,
oh but I tell you still I I Ityshoo I need,
you and a box of handkerchiefs.
I've got a little brother his christian name is Sid,
Ever since he saw the turtles he's flipped his lid.
He's always scoffing pizzas just like Leonardo,
Donatello Raphael and Michaelangelo
Turtles, Turtles...
He loves the Teenage Turtles he's collecting all their stuff,
T-shirts, books and badges he can never get enough.
Spending every penny on all that he can find
If it has a turtle on, he's going out of his mind....
Turtle crazy, he's turtle mad,
The turtles they have taken away the little bit sense he had,
In a turtle outfit you really have to laugh,
He wears it every night and day and even in the bath.
He's acting like a madman, he's acting like a clown,
The Teenage Mutant Turtles are coming to our town.
He bought a plastic Turtle to keep up with the trend,
He dropped it down the toilet now he's going round the bend....
Tutles on his dressing gown and on the bedroom wall,
Turtles on his vest and his underpants and all....
Turtle crazy, he's Turtle mad,
The turtles they have taken away the little bit sense he had.
In a turtle outfit you really have to laugh,
He wears it every night and day and even in the bath....
-"I think I'll ring, Kendra. Hello? It's Olga. C-can I speak to Kendra please?"
-"Just hold on a minute pet. Kendra? Olga's on the phone, do you want to speak to him?"
-"Ah! I cannot."
I first saw Kendra at a pub called the Rumside Hall - in Durham
So sweet and tender but she did not even see me at all - No
She looked so nice, she smelled so fine
Oh, how I wished that Kendra was mine
5 foot 1 and eyes that were blue
A smile that made me melt
Oh, what could I do?
I had to get Kendra's telephone number really quick - Yes
If I came straight to the point it would do the trick - Yes
I asked her if she'd like to go out with me
She said that she was flattered, but I just couldn't see
Why she said...
Oh! Olga I cannot...
Oh! Olga I cannot...
My boyfriend's sitting on the Sunday
He does not want you to see me
So Olgaaaaa... I cannot.
I was really de-pressed, what could I do? I was blue
I'll ring her up again in a day or two, on Monday
Her boyfriend wasn't there, so I felt lucky
Howza bout now baby come out with me?
And she said... she said...
I would if I could, but I don't think I should
I can't, well I can but I shan't - it's not good man
Olga... I cannot... I cannot! I cannot!! I cannot!!!!
I'm sorry that I ever rang
She said "Don't be dafted. Oh! Olga man
I want to see you, don't get me wrong
I'll contact you soon, it won't be long
But at the moment... I cannot."
I called Kendra another fifty times on the phone - Yes
She agreed to meet me, but I should have known - Yes
I wound the window down in the Rolls Royce
I said "Jump in the back!" and then I heard her voice
Start to say...Start to say...
I'm going to Laurete for my holiday in Spain
And when I get back, I still cannot again!
so Olgaaaaaaa....
I talked it over with my mum and me dad
But even my sister and the dog think I'm mad!
So Olga.... yes Olga..... I cannot.
