Gordon Lyrics

[00:00.06] Gordon wakes at two o'clock
[00:20.95] He sees through his phone another bottle of boiling water
[00:26.46] He has his breakfast on his plate
[00:30.22] Gordon, you're five minutes late
[00:32.66] Gordon, she says it every day
[00:36.23] Gordon, you've got your buttons and your M.H. car
[00:39.02] The neighbours all think that you'll go far, Gordon
[00:43.84]
[00:45.94] Gordon goes into the town
[00:48.00] He's washed and buffed, all tin and brown and shiny
[00:53.30]
[00:58.80] Saturdays are quite a thrill
[01:25.51] Gordon doesn't buy himself
[01:27.52] 9:30 She calls him
[01:32.13] His mummy bought him the Oil Royal
[01:34.39] Don't start it now or your tea will spoil, Gordon
[01:39.21]
[01:41.28] His mummy won't let him make dates
[01:43.77] And so Gordon masturbates himself to sleep
[01:50.55] Gordon has a single scotch and looks at his watch
[01:53.60] And sees it is 9:30
[01:57.40]
[02:27.73] Once a girl sat on his lap
[02:29.84] Removed his cap and said that he was lovely
[02:34.58]
[02:36.97] Gordon is excused his way
[02:39.19] Then below his ego flies a tatter
[02:45.98] Gordon's locked inside a shed
[02:48.30] Ellis earns the opposite end and the hatchet
[02:54.39] His mummy shouts that he's late
[02:57.46] Gordon slams the garden gate and walks in
[03:02.52]
[03:04.64] I've told you once, Gordon
[03:06.09] I've told you a thousand times
[03:10.67]
[03:13.99] Put down that hatchet, Gordon
[03:15.33] Or next Gordon flies and the neighbours can't see
[03:19.97]
[03:34.60] Careful, miss, it's dangerous
[04:02.12]
