Mother did her level best But I put her to the test I was such a naughty child Being crazy, running wild And she had this hollow threat Says it to this day I bet Something that would strike fear Into the heart of nobody at all And she’d say: ‘Just wait til your father gets home Just wait til your father gets home Just wait til your father gets home Just wait til your father gets home’ I don’t think she understood I knew Dad had gone for good He went off with Auntie Joan Left me and Mum alone Now he’s doing chiropody in Dumfries Wait til your father gets home Wait til your father gets home Wait til your father gets home Wait til your father gets home... (Thoughts and reflections) Wait til your father gets home... It’ll be a long wait It’ll be a cold day in Hell before Daddy comes home, Mummy...

How long is a piece of string? How long is a life? How long is the longest day? How sharp is your knife? Have you ever seen the place Camels go to cry? Penny for your thoughts, my dear Penny for the guy How long til the water’s here? We all need to drink How long til the water’s here? Getting hard to think Sentinels and camels Lookup at the sky Sentinels and camels Lookup at the sky How long is a piece of string? How long is a life? How long is the longest day? How sharp is your knife? Have you ever seen the place Camels go to cry? Penny for your thoughts, my dear Penny for the guy piece of string? a life? the longest day? your knife? the place to cry? my dear the guy piece of string? a life? the longest day? your knife? the place to cry? my dear the guy

This is a song and it’s nothing at all This is a song and it’s nothing at all This is a song and it’s nothing at all This is a song and it’s nothing at all It’s looking so pretty here Even the birds are dressed up Like geisha girls from Venus Or maybe even Neptune Do they have geisha girls near Uranus? Ha ha ha ha ha... What a great joke ‘Cos I’m a great joke bloke This is a song and it’s nothing at all This is a song and it’s nothing at all This is a song and it’s nothing at all This is a song and it’s nothing at all I don’t like it in the words It’s scary as it can be But I’m waking up Waking up to from else’s dream Come on, show me what you’re made of Show me what you’re made of Woo-hoo, woo-hoo Na na na na... This is a song and it’s nothing at all This is a song and it’s nothing at all This is a song and it’s nothing at all This is a song and it’s nothing at all If I ruled the world Every day would be Tuesday This is a song and it’s nothing at all This is a song and it’s nothing at all This is a song and it’s nothing at all This is a song and it’s nothing at all... .

oh mother 03:04
First came Amy – she broke my heart Married for a month and then The judge gave her my house and my car Oh dear, I just want a normal life Oh dear, I just want a normal wife Then there was Belinda I caught her with my friend He was wearing a great big nappy I just don’t understand Oh Mother, everything you said was true Oh Mother, I ‘m sorry that I doubted you Oh Mother, what’s a boy supposed to do? Oh Mother, I ‘m sorry that I doubted you When I was a little boy My mum said: ‘You cannot trust women Women are the scourge of men’ I said: ‘Aren’t you a woman?’ And she said: ‘ No, I’m your mother So get that straight I’m the only woman Who won’t treat you like dirt Oh Mother, everything you said was true Oh Mother, I ‘m sorry that I doubted you Oh Mother, my life is a total mess Because of women, you were right, I confess Oh Mother, what’s a boy supposed to do? Oh Mother, what’s a boy supposed to do? Oh Mother, everything you said was true Oh Mother, I ‘m sorry that I doubted you

I’ve got a job which is very unusual You could guess all day You’ll never guess what I do If you listen, I’m feeling generous I’m gonna share my news with you, yeah I make prosthetics I make prosthetics I make noses, I make ears I make jawbones, sometimes teeth I make foreheads, I make eyes I make eyebrows, I make cheeks, yes I make prosthetics I make prosthetics I make prosthetics I make prosthetics My customers suffer from disfigurements I can help them in their lives, that makes sense There’s nothing like it, oh, this feeling When we help someone, there’s nothing like this To see them go out, confident and happy Can’t believe it, I’m filled with bliss When I started I thought: ‘This is rather an odd thing to do?’ I didn’t know if I would stick at it I make prosthetics I make prosthetics I make prosthetics I make spare human bits I make fake body bits I make prosthetics I make prosthetics And there’s nothing quite like this Hope your life goes easily That you won’t need someone like me But if do and you need some bits I’ll do my best to make sure they fit, yeah I make prosthetics I make prosthetics I make prosthetics I make prosthetics .

Gran was telling me about her childhood When she was a little girl, the house she lived in Didn’t have no heating, didn’t have much of anything But she says that they were always happy Now we’ve all got double glazing Now we’ve all got double glazing Gran said maybe it was cold But no-one seemed to notice Wrap up warm and wear a jumper And get the eiderdown and make some tea And have something nice to eat And think of lovely things Now we’ve all got double glazing Now we’ve all got double glazing [I’m heated, sealed in I never know discomfort I never know what’s going on Behind my double glazing] Now we’ve all got double glazing Now we’ve all got N-ow we’ve all got Now we’ve all got double glazing My gran does not like double glazing My gran does not like central heating (Was it better then? If she thinks so, then it must be so It must be so...) .

Once upon a time there was a crazy idea: to create, record and upload a musical track every day for a year. And the idea floated round and round the planet, looking for a place to call home. After a long time of searching and wishing and watching, the idea chose to make a nest in the brain of a bushy fellow, coming to his aid and guiding him out of the doldrums, back to a magical pathway... ... more
