Lord Herefords Knob, I know it well ( so to speak !)

God gave us life,God gave us life
he also gave us Lionel Blair

God gave us life,
So that we,
Could take sweets,
From strange men,
In big cars,
And get driven,
Too the woods,
To see none existant puppies

But he also gave us Thora Hird



One of my favourites

Mention the Lord of the Rings just once more,
and I'll more than likely kill you.......

And the next line please

And when I got home
The kids were on the patio
Looking quite upset
So I asked them what was wrong
And they said beware there's an Albert Hammond bootleg in the hall
In there a man who introduced himself as Stanley Rouse
Came in and left an Albert Hammond bootleg in the hall

What can you say it's just brilliant stuff ....

Excellent stuff, the later stuff is so much better than the first 2 albums.
Too many great songs to mention

She stayed with me until she moved to Notting Hill
She said it was the place she needs to be
Where the cocaine is fair-trade and frequently displayed
Is the Buena Vista Social Club CD

I thought you'd be back in three weeks and we'd go wandering in the peaks
Sojourn in my uncle Joe's ashram
And when you're in Matlock Bath you dont need Sylvia Plath
Not while we've got Mrs. Gibsons’ jam

Alas I'm brooding along by the runnel
While she’s in Capri with her swain
And the light at the end of the tunnel
Is the light of an oncoming train

Well we both grew up in Eyam and strange as it may seem
Neither of us thought we'd ever leave
But the beak in Leek is weak
And she's moved it so to speak
With featureless TV producer Steve

And now it's all Eva Cassidy and aphids in Picardy
And so I can only ascertain
That the light at the end of the tunnel
Is the light of an oncoming train

No frills handy for the hills that's the way you spell New Mills
Brooding along by the runnel
While she’s in Capri with her swain
And the light at the end of the tunnel
Is the light of an oncoming train

Down in the High Street somebody careered out of Boots without due care or attention
I suggest that they learn some pedestrian etiquette
i.e sidle out of the store gingerly
Embrace the margin

Fat kids with sausage rolls
Poor sods conducting polls

There’s a man with a mullet going mad with a mallet in Millets

I try to put everything into perspective
Set it against the scale of human suffering
And I thought of the Mugabe government
And the children of the Calcutta railways
This works for a while
But then I encounter Primark FM
Overhead a rainbow appears
In black and white

i was just sitting there eating a salmonella sandwhich
when a man walked up to me
He said do you mind dear sir if i ask you a question
if music be the food of love are you the indigestion
oooh woooh
yipeiayy
