I got well stuck into a lot of obvious errors in the earlier version of this song, not that I'm much better off... I do feel that for non British speakers, some of the terms need explaining or they are 'unhearable' - like 'Thames at 6' or twenty No.6 for instance). I's like an aural crossword puzzle, anyway... my two cents ;-))
Tell her to work at Tesco's
Tell her to stay at school
Tell her what's possible - all day derision
Down at the Bull and Bush
Hopeless in Harringay
Over and above and she hasn't a clue
Twenty number six and she hasn't an answer
No one wants to listen and there's no one wants to know
Someone's got a question that she doesn't want to see
Over and above and she hasn't a view
Twenty number six* and it isn’t a vision
No one wants to listen and there's no one wants to know
Someone with a question that she doesn't want to see
Tell her she works at Tesco's
Tell her who doesn’t know
Tell her they realise it’s all decalali
Out in the party pack
Phensic* and marmalade
Frozen at six and she hasn't a clue
Frozen abroad and there isn't an answer
No one wants to listen and there's no one left to go
Someone's with a question but they've nothing left to do
Frozen at six and she hasn't a view
Frozen abroad and there isn't a notion
No one wants to listen and there's no where left to go
Someone's got a question but there’s nothing left to do
Knocking/Nothing around at tea time
Up in her room, alone
Something she doesn't know - the Skank Bloc Bologna
Keeping us all alive - something in Italy
Stuck around the home and they haven't a clue
'Thames At Six'* and it isn't an answer
Now, they haven’t got a notion and they haven't got a hope
The Rockers in the town - the magnificent six
Rockers in the town with an overestimation
Now they're livin’ on a notion and they're working on a hope
A Euro vision and a skank in scope
*boring local news TV show every day at six in London
twenty number six - popular (cheap) packet of cigarettes from Player's: No6 / a packet of 20)
Phensic - cheap headache pills available at chemist's
