Lyrics

I read the news today oh boy About a lucky man who made the grade And though the news was rather sad Well I just had to laugh I saw the photograph He blew his mind in a car He didn't notice that the lights had changed A crowd of people stood and stared They'd seen this face before Nobody was really sure if he was from the House of Lords I saw a film today oh boy The English army had just won the war A crowd of people turned away But I just had to learn Having read the book I'd love to turn you on Woke up Got out of bed Dragged the comb across my head Found my way downstairs and drank a cup And looking up I noticed that I was late Found my coat and grabbed my hat Made the bus in seconds flat Found my way upstairs and I had a smoke And somebody spoke and I went to a dream Hah-ah-ah-ah Hah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah Hah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah Hah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah I read the news today oh boy Four thousands holes in Blackburn, Lancashire And though the holes were rather small They had to count them all Now they know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall I'd love to turn you on
