When we were back
In smoggy Bermondsey
And all the money was
spent
We looked back fondly
On our September
holiday
Picking hops in Kent

Oh, dear what can the matter be
Three old ladies
locked in the lavatory
And it all happened
last Saturday
And nobody knew they
were there
The first old lady was
totally batty
And she was in there
each Saturday
As I say she was
really quite batty
And nobody cared she
was there
The second old lady
said sweetly
“I’m no lady oh how
you flatter me”
I’ve not been here
before on a Saturday
And we were surprised
she was there
The third old lady was
an anomaly
He was a man called Ian
from Battersea
He didn’t even know it
was Saturday
And didn’t know why he
was there
I can’t watch Christopher Eccleston
I find his speech very
distracting
He was clearly a
graduate
Of the shouty school of acting
I’ve enrolled my Daughter
On the perfect class
for her
Learning basic skills
to hone
Like shopping on her
own
I had a little pony,
They called him Bonny Blue.
I sold him to a man,
Who turned him into
glue.
Are you wearing a tutu?
Oh, it really does suit
you
Give me a twirl oh do
do
In your pretty little
tutu
Red Brick, built Britain
For common man and squire
Built from the ground
up
Until they built an
Empire
