What you need
Is a stable boy
Yeah you need someone
You can rely on
Yeah you need someone
Who'll bolt the stable door
Before the last horse has gone
And love it's such a cheesy song
But we've all got to sing along
Yeah love is blind it's plain to see
That love will never let us be
What you need
Is a stable boy
Yeah you need someone
Someone who isn't me
Yeah you need someone
Who'll bolt the stable door
Before the last horse has gone
[Repeat chorus]
[Repeat verse]
[Repeat chorus]

British Summer Time

And mum said do you hear that sound
It means the swifts are here from Africa
And I don't know why they fly that far
Just to be hear with us in the pouring rain
And it was British Summer Time
Yes it was British Sumer Time
With ice-cream in the rain
Coz it might just turn out nice again
And we’re on the beach and it’s a cold grey day
But at breakfast dad said well let’s go anyway
Coz with a bit of luck it’ll brighten up
But we got wet through and my hands went blue
But it was British summer time
I remember British Summer Time yeah
With ice-cream in the rain
Coz it might just turn out nice again
And on that last day when I held your hand
And you weren’t quite sure where you were
And we turned you round so you could see the sun
And you said well at least it’s turned out nice again
And it was British Summer Time
And now I’m listening to the rain
And I know all things must pass
But you can’t escape the pain
And there’s this seaside photograph
Of that day I cried and cried
Then we had ice-cream in the rain
And it was all alright again
And the rain shall make a door for me
And I shall walk through it
Sitting in a British car-park waiting for the rain to stop
And if the rain don’t stop then we’ll just get wet
[Shipping Forecast]
[Repeat chorus]
You get accustomed to the rain
You get accustomed to the rain
[Shipping Forecast continues]

Time For A Trim
03:10
|

Your hair is growing
With some profusion
Soon it will
Cover your eyes
I foresee problems in
High wind conditions and
Risk of entanglement in
Branches of thorny shrubs
I know you don’t wanna hear it
But we all
Know when it’s time it’s
Time for a trim, it's time for a trim, time for a trim
Time for a trim, it's time for a trim, time for a trim
Time for a trim, it’s time for a trim, it's time for a trim
We all know when it’s time for a trim
Your hair is growing
With great profusion
Soon it will
Obscure your vision
I foresee problems
Problems at bath time and
Risk of entanglement in
Open machinery
I know you don't wanna hear it [etc.]
[Repeat chorus]
It's time for a trim it's
Time for a trim it's
Time for a trim it's
Time to face your fear
It’s alright for girls they
They know the secret language of haircuts (but)
I just don't want to look stupid
All I really want is the same as whatever it was you did last time
Mm I think it's time for trim
That's now clear to everyone
I know you don't wanna hear it [etc.]

And the snow fell
On Christmas day
And I never felt so homesick
And I'm three thousand miles away
In America
Oh and it's true
That you don't know
What you've got
Until it's gone
Until it's gone
And the bells rang out in Central Park on Christmas day I
Walked through the snow
With nowhere to go
But it was kind of beautiful even though
I felt so alone
So far from home
Unless you're sure that you don't
Really care for Christmas I'd
Make the best of Christmas time today
And the sign said
No flight today
So I came back from the airport
And you're three thousand miles away
On the telephone
Oh and it's true
That we don't know
What we've got
Until it's gone
Until it's gone
[Repeat chorus]
So unless you're sure that you don't
Really care for Christmas I'd
Make the best of Christmas time today
[Repeat chorus]
The snow fell at Christmas...
The bells rang out, in Central Park, the bells rang out, nowhere to go...
