Ian Dury - Have A Word lyrics

Gotta sign the rent book Gotta do the laundry Then there's the electric The water and the gas Haven't stopped moaning Since we had the phone in The television rental Another bloody ha** Go up to the top of a very high mountain Go up to the top of a fresh air hill You can never stop when the money is counting Worry till you drop, till you pay your bills Got a rotten head-ache Ready for a breakdown The pressure of the pressure Is more than I can bare The awfulness is spreading It's really done my head in I think I've been selected For more than my fair share Go into the heart of the fresh air valley Go and have a drink from the mountain stream Go and have a word before you go doolally Have a Dicky Bird with your self-esteem Putting pen to paper Applying for a loan Ain't got no collateral Nor's a cat in hell The bailiff's on the knocker I'm going off my rocker And as regards contentment I haven't had a smell Go up to the top of a very high mountain Go up to the top of a fresh air hill You can never stop when the money is counting Working till you drop, till you pay your bills Go into the heart of the fresh air valley Go and have a drink from the mountain stream Go and have a word before you go doolally Have a Dicky Bird with your self-esteem Go up to the top of a very high mountain Go up to the top of a fresh air hill You can never stop when the money is counting Worry till you drop, till you pay your bills Go into the heart of the fresh air valley Go and have a drink from the mountain stream Go and have a word before you go doolally Have a Dicky Bird with your self-esteem
