Jay Allard - Cold History

There used to be some people
Who lived round here before
But they weren't very successful
And they're not here any more
They had no widescreen tellies
No Big Brother or WifeSwap
They all went round wearing wellies
And they had no need to shop
'Cos they grew their food in fields
And built houses out of mud
They had to make their own fun
But it wasn't very good
And there used to be this saying
That some people used to say
But I wasn't there to hear it
And I don't care, anyway
