Lulu Selling Tea (2011 Remaster)

歌詞

May I be allowed to voice dissent Over the Sixties, and what they meant Cos I've been listening for twenty years The anecdotes ring in my ears From people who were over the age of consent Now I don't recall too much long hair At least not around where we used to stay The only guy we thought was okay Who wore his hair the Beatles way Was a Belfast boy that Man United play Mother's Pride on the table, Batman on TV A Man in a Suitcase, and Daktari and Skippy Jimmy Clitheroe, Colin Stein, and Lulu selling tea Going to school in the dark, in the winter The view from beneath my balaclava The world from four feet off the floor Must have had its limitations Without my adult complications But I can only report what I saw And I saw… Lucky bags, Bazooka Joes, animal tracks on my shoes I was sooking milk through a straw in the middle of the morning Saturday morning pictures, and fireworks getting thrown Football songs in the shelter in the playground St Cuthbert's horses pulling the carts of the milkmen You know, it's funny, but I don't recall too much long hair
