One By One
Pontius Pilate came to our town
Up to the dockyards to see the picket line
We asked him to help but he just turned around
He's the leader of the union now
Leader of the union
All of our questions he ignored
He washed his hands and he dreamed of his reward
A seat in the House of Lords
One by one

The Big Issue
There are those
Spend the night
Under bridges
Over by the river
Down in the park
Through the winter
But there's a house
That I know
Safe and warm
And no-one ever goes there
Down where the priests
Bless the wine
She's been born into the wrong time
She keeps nonsense on her mind
She's a poet

I Want More
Blue-rinse sugar
Wipe-clean couple
Pinched last supper
Counting pretty penny
John Betjeman
Some dead liar
Quiet pink picture
Under heavy manners
This is Tearoom England
They'll kick your face in
So politely
This is Tearoom England
They'll kick your face in
Oh so nicely
I want more!
No hurry

The Good Ship Lifestyle
This is the Goodship Lifestyle
All my friends jumped ship
I elect me the captain
This is the loneliest voyage
I've ever been on
Up in the crow's nest
Over there! I see land!
First mate? There is no First Mate
This is the Goodship Lifestyle
Sail away from the world
Sail away from the world
So steer a course

Tubthumping
We'll be singing
When we're winning
We'll be singing
I get knocked down but I get up again
You're never going to keep me down
I get knocked down but I get up again
You're never going to keep me down
I get knocked down but I get up again
You're never going to keep me down
Pissing the night away
Pissing the night away
He drinks a whisky drink
He drinks a vodka drink
He drinks a lager drink
He drinks a cider drink
He sings the songs that remind him of the good times
He sings the songs that remind him of the better times:

Smalltown
And every morning comes too soon
All your nights are sleepless
Poison arrows to ruin your tomorrows
Below suspicion
Cafes full of people dressed as spies
And all I know is guilt for being different
It's always raining stones
There's a killer in the home
In a small town
Everybody looks the same
There are unwritten rules
Unspoken words
Should I pack my fear and go?
I have to leave somehow
Before they run me out of town
I have to leave somehow
