A BIT DUMB (lyrics)
We’re very nice people
And we live in
A very nice place
Its a little way
Out of town
And its, very, very, nice
We know for certain
When we peep out
Through our curtains
Everyone around us
Will be Nice
Nice people,
Lots of space
I like it, like it
I like the place
I like the views,
I like the food
And,
I like you
I do I like you
Youuuuu…I like you
I like the streets
They’re so nice and neat
We’re cutting down them trees
And we’re pouring in
Nice concrete
We bought a four by four
Were buying more and more
I like it, like it
It cost a little fortune
A tidy little sum
That’s not important
You know ’cause
We’re a bit Dumb.
Were a bit dumb.
In the meantime
Livin’ in a dream world
Livin’ in dream home
Livin’, livin’ in a
Dream.
We are living in a dream.
We love a lonely life
We love a lonely night
We’re on a power diet
With our lonely chums
We bought a power-saw
We don’t even know what for
We are dumb
Now someone’s parked in my driveway
Im gonna kill that bum
Gonna get my a gun
Gonna blow him away
Hey!
We’re far away from the humdrum
We’re far away from the gutter-scum
We’re locked away
With a loaded gun
Well, you might say
We’re far away from the humdrum
We’re miles away from the
Gutter-scum
We’re locked away
With a loaded gun
Hey!
Were dumb!
Howard guitar, vox. Arron, bass.
