lyrics

“Mushroom, sausage, eggs, beans, toast twice,
Scrambled egg, cup of gnat’s and a fried slice.”

Slight variations on the above
Completed with a “Cheers, darlin’” or “Thanks, love”
Are pretty much all that’s ever said to me
A woman manning the till of Bill’s Brill Grill nosherie.

Oldie radio station’s doing in my head
I only took on this job to pay off my debts
The one thing money can’t buy is poverty
Underpaid, under the cosh in Bill’s Brill Grill nosherie.

“Mushroom, sausage, eggs, beans, toast twice,
Scrambled egg, cup of gnat’s and a fried slice.”

A steady stream of hard hats from the building site
Gold-toothed grins and “Hey, wotcher doin’ tonight?”
Play your cards right and you could be doing me
Banging my bored brains out in Bill’s Brill Grill nosherie.

One day a gold limo will screech in the street
And in will stride a zillionaire who’ll sweep me off my feet
Jet me off to his mansion in Los Angeles
Rolling in dosh far away from Bill’s Brill Grill nosherie.

“Mushroom, sausage, eggs, beans, toast twice,
Scrambled egg, cup of gnat’s and a fried slice.
Mushroom, sausage, eggs, beans, toast twice,
Scrambled egg, cup of gnat’s and a fried slice.”
