Tedious people, tiresome town | |
Under the gaze of the mayoral frown | |
Always calm with a gentle breeze | |
Tarkus in black vinyl please | |
What would you do | |
If the sexton’s wife from the best-kept village nearby came running | |
With bells round her neck and said | |
You’d better move away, tomorrow or today | |
’cause when the owl starts laughing | |
We will all fall down | |
There’s an outbreak of Vitas Gerulaitis on the way | |
Why it’s Mr Kowalski | |
It was you all along | |
That ski lodge would have been mine | |
If it wasn’t for you meddling kids | |
But what can you do | |
When your Mum’s in Rampton, bouncing off the walls | |
And singing “Who’s afraid, of Virginia Wade?” | |
Why do that today when you can always put it off until tomorrow? | |
Was our motto | |
Subsequently engraved on a plaque | |
As a reminder of the attack | |
Of Vitas Gerulaitis | |
We all fall down | |
We all fall down | |
We all fall down | |
We all fall down | |
Who’s afraid of Virginia Wade? | |
Who’s afraid of Virginia Wade? | |
An outbreak of Vitas Gerulaitis | |
In the town | |
In the town | |
In the town | |
In the town | |
We all fall down |
Tedious people, tiresome town | |
