[00:00:13] Well the two forty eight

[00:00:15] Was a minute too late

[00:00:16] And the planning permission

[00:00:18] Refused on the gate

[00:00:19] Or the crisis with whatever food this week

[00:00:24] Someone else won a million

[00:00:26] And blew it on shares

[00:00:27] And the adverts stair lifts

[00:00:29] Glide up the stairs

[00:00:30] And the bingo card inside is yours to keep

[00:00:36] For the little old lady it was love at first sight

[00:00:39] From the renegade butler who wore makeup at night

[00:00:41] To the boy in the car who was speeding by far

[00:00:45] It's just what they say

[00:00:48] In the papers today

[00:00:55] Giant bees by the thousand are making a swarm

[00:00:58] And it's nobody's fault just the winter was warm

[00:01:01] And it's someone famous' secret out to see

[00:01:06] There's a three hour delay

[00:01:08] On the M twenty five

[00:01:09] And a swimmer who's ninety who's barely alive

[00:01:12] And a vicar who says mass on ecstasy

[00:01:17] For the little old lady it was love at first sight

[00:01:20] From the renegade butler who wore makeup at night

[00:01:23] To the boy in the car who was speeding by far

[00:01:26] It's just what they say

[00:01:29] In the papers today

[00:01:31] Glossy magazines with happy homes and healthy beans

[00:01:37] People's lives all stripped down to the core

[00:01:42] Scandals politicians and the faces on our screens

[00:01:48] Designer suits and other suits of law

[00:02:09] They saw elvis again on the ten o'clock news

[00:02:12] Though the desk would have covered his new blue suede shoes

[00:02:15] Lord lucan owns a pub just down the road

[00:02:20] There's a girl on page seven who's covered in tears

[00:02:23] Says goodbye to her man for another eight years

[00:02:26] And a boy of three just cracked a complex code

[00:02:31] For the little old lady it was love at first sight

[00:02:34] From the renegade butler who wore makeup at night

[00:02:36] To the boy in the car who was speeding by far

[00:02:40] It's just what they say
