IVY
Invite to attend the pitiful ritual
I don’t wanna
I don’t wanna
Rubber-necking whiners, cheese and vitriol
I’m not gonna
I’m not gonna
“But what if everyone felt that way?”
“Then I’d be a fool to feel any other way”
I don’t wanna
I don’t wanna
Backs slapped, hands clapped, eyes on the prize
In whose honour?
In whose honour?
Jobs slashed, mobs flashed, smiling through the lies
I don’t wanna
I don’t wanna
When doing the unexpected is expected of you
There’s no way out way out enough that you can do
And I don’t wanna
I don’t wanna
When doing the unexpected is expected of you
There’s no way out way out enough that you can do
“But what if everyone felt that way?”
“Then I’d be a fool to feel any other way”
I don’t wanna
I don’t wanna

BLUEBELL WOOD
Do they still call this Bluebell Wood
Where ne'er-do-wells did no good?
Hit by lit darts fired by the sun
Travelling like javelins shot from God’s gun
Where dens, hide-outs and secret magic palaces
Backed on to the fenced, immense garden of the Harrises
Life was a song and laughter its tune
The world was a pudding, I was a spoon
It seemed bigger in my wild childhood
Do they still call this Bluebell Wood?
Do they still call this Shady Glade
Where bogeymen would stalk and we'd be afraid?
Camp fire cramped, frying pan and kettle
Bangers and beans, dock leaves and nettles
Talk of Chinese burns, Scotch mist, what a French kiss is
As a damp burning branch crackles and hisses
Barry boasts he drank a Martini
Then was sick on his dad's Lamborghini
Barry? Or was it Gary? Memories fade
Do they still call this Shady Glade?
Do they still call this Bluebell Wood?
Did we jam roly-poly home for roast dins and pud?
We would meet when shadows were short
Hold up the jars of prisoners we'd caught
Tadpoles, earwigs, daddy longlegs, worms
Capture a lizard, you’re a wizard of the firm
This was back when a box had three sides
And pennies got a multitude of chews and rides
And two years in the Army would do you good
Do they still call this Bluebell Wood?

FLY MY PLANE
She’s a down ginger knocker
Knickerbocker, darny socker
With a wind-up ticky-tocker
Off her rocker with a roll.
She’s a 9s to the make-up
Hobby take-up, hubby break up
With a milk of glassy shake-up
Garden rake up wake a mole.
There’ll be fun all down the tunnel to my brain
I’d love to let you get to fly my plane
Fly my plane.
She’s a grass smoke free borny
Flaky corny, curvy scrawny
With an oldie goldie horny
Owly tawny mousey clutch.
She’s no kitschy cataloguer
Dead nag flogger, manay hogger
Who’s a common clap ’em jogger
Into grogger out of touch.
There’ll be fun all down the tunnel to my brain
I’d love to let you get to fly my plane
Fly my plane, baby!
She’s a down ginger knocker
Knickerbocker, darny soccer
With a wind-up ticky-tocker
Off her rocker with a roll.
She’s a 9s to the make-up
Hobby take-up, hubby break up
With a milk of glassy shake-up
Garden rake up wake a mole.
There’ll be fun all down the tunnel to my brain
I’d love to let you get to fly my plane
Fly my plane
I’d love to let you get to fly my plane
Fly my plane
I’d love to let you get to fly my plane
Everybody!
I’d love to let you get to fly my plane
NAHHHHHH!
