The boss and the nosey parker
The boss is dark the other one is darker
A barn full of hay chances are I will torch it one day
I won’t put it out and neither will they
Don’t believe todays papers just ignore them and we’ll meet up later
Looking through the long lens of the law
Spying, laughing on the wrong side of the door
The rules have been set and the nosey man knows that dya wanna bet?
Hard grafters just keep going
Day after day ever present and not knowing
Work more and earn less
Clock of an hour early at best
The boss and the nosey parker
The boss is smart the other ones smarter
Blink and you’re fired
Just another day don’t go in you’re too tired
You’re unaware what day of the week
You’re made to feel like you learnt to walk before you could speak
Hard grafters just keep going
Day after day ever present and not knowing
Work more and earn less
Clock of an hour early at best
I can’t understand who are you?
I thought you were on the bottom of my shoe
Today is your day now walk the plank
The moment blood sweat and tears sank
Hard grafters just keep going
Day after day ever present and not knowing
Work more and earn less
Clock of an hour early at best
Who would win between the boss and the nosey parker?
Who would win between the green giant and Mr Quaker?
It all depends whether you ask the butcher the baker, or the candlestick maker
A battleground covered in sweet corn and oats
Then a car chase from Lands end to John o’ Groats
What world do we live in if a monkey and a zebra can’t be friends?
If Mr Quaker and the Green Giant won’t make amends
You pay huge amounts of money for old rope
When your favourite character has been taken out your local soap
For 40 days and 40 nights
Lions and tigers have been allowed to fight
And when Moses parted the red sea
No one said it would be easy
He didn't do it for you or me
