Lyrics

Hello sir
Remember me?
I'm the man you thought I'd never be
The boy who you reduced to tears
The lad called 'thingy' for six whole years

Yeah that's right, my name's bob
The one who landed the popstar's job
The one who you told 'look don't touch'
The kid who wouldn't amount to much

Well I'm here and you're still there
With your fake sportscar and receding hair
Dodgy farah trousers that you think are smart
Married to the woman that teaches art

Married to the life, married to the school
I want to sing and dance sir, now who's the fool?
Sing and dance? you thought I was barmy
'Settle down thingy, join the army!'

And who are you to tell me this?
The dream I want I'll have to miss
Sir it's god, he's been given the right
To structure lives overnight

Now I know life's true path
Tanks and guns, that'll be a laugh
No, not me. I'm a mega civilian
I won't lead my life riding pillion

But thanks for the advice and I'm sure it'll do
For the negative dickheads just like you
As for now, I've a different weapon
Stage and screen are about to beckon

Hey sir how ya doing today
Are ya doing well because im doing ok
The grass is green and the sky is blue
I went to the store and I saw you!

When I saw you it made me smile
Then I thought about cheese for a while
Hey sir, how ya doing today
If ya give me a cookie then ill be on my way

I like coffee and I like tea
I like the ladies
And the ladies like me

Hey sir, ill see ya later maybe
I have to go on a date with my lady
And hey sir, bye for now
I think I gotta go and milk a baby cow
