I know that at Sunday School
They say they look down on you
I don't know if this is true but I hope that it is
My Nan left me lots of things
Lots of things in very old tins
I hope that she knows how important it is
I know Phyllis said I would be successful, I'm not so sure
I don't want to be anything
I just want to stay at home with him
[SPOOKY GHOST NOISES]
I saw him for the first time
The very first time when I was nine
He was standing over my bed in a white suit
And I saw the other one
Standing at the bus stop
On the day of his funeral
Yeah, it was weird
I know Phyllis said I would be successful, I'm not so sure
I don't want to be anything
I just want to stay at home with him
While we're on the subject I thought I'd ask
Could I win the lottery? If I could that'd be great.

Its hard work being me
And I always lose my keys
I have no self esteem
Now get down on your knees
Why are all music heroes men
When I write better songs than them?
I have no self esteem
Now come on, worship me
I need silence when I sleep
Oh come on silence when I sleep
My mum won't talk to me
I see her in my dreams
Now turn that TV off
And turn that music off
And put the cat out please
Oh come on, shut up please
I like the name Justine
and I like the name Martine
and I like the name Marlene
and I like the name Matilda

The supermarkets value yield
Above all else at the expense
Of bugs and birds made homeless by
The hedgerows pulled up from the fields
Their fruit is always blemish free
It looks so good but tastes like crap
Irradiated vegetables
Are all sealed up in plastic wrap
Each peach, pear, plum
Supermarkets make me numb
The little shop around the corner
Makes me feel so much warmer
Support your local greengrocer
His wife and he have kids to feed
His great grandfather set up shop
Way back in 1923
His ugly veg tastes twice as nice
Its caked in muck from nearby farms
And as its not flown round the world
Consumers pay a fairer price
Each peach, pear, plum
Supermarkets make me numb
The little shop around the corner
Makes me feel so much warmer
[SCREAMS]
