Reasons to be cheerful Part Three






































Reasons to be cheerful part 3
(Ian Dury)

1 2 3

Summer, Buddy Holly, the working
folly
Good golly Miss Molly and boats
Hammersmith Palais, the Bolshoi
Ballet
Jump back in the alley and nanny
goats

18-wheeler Scammels, Domenecker
camels
All other mammals plus equal votes
Seeing Piccadilly, Fanny Smith and
Willy
Being rather silly, and porridge
oats

A bit of grin and bear it, a bit of
come and share it
You're welcome, we can spare it -
yellow socks
Too short to be haughty, too nutty
to be naughty
Going on 40 - no electric shocks

The juice of the carrot,
the smile of the parrot
A little drop of claret - anything that rocks
Elvis and Scotty, days when I ain't spotty,
Sitting on the potty - curing smallpox

Reasons to be cheerful part 3

Health service glasses
Gigolos and brasses
round or skinny bottoms

Take your mum to paris
lighting up the chalice
wee willy harris

Bantu Stephen Biko, listening to Rico
Harpo, Groucho, Chico

Cheddar cheese and pickle, the Vincent motorsickle
Slap and tickle
Woody Allen, Dali, Dimitri and Pasquale
balabalabala and Volare

Something nice to study, phoning up a buddy
Being in my nuddy
Saying hokey-dokey, singalonga Smokey
Coming out of chokey

John Coltrane's soprano, Adi Celentano
Bonar Colleano
