Ian Dury And The Blockheads Have A Word Lyrics

Have A Word Lyrics

Gotta sign the rent book

Gotta do the laundry

Then there's the
electric

The water and the gas

Haven't stopped moaning

Since
we had the phone in

The television rental

Another bloody hass



Go up to the top of a very high mountain

Go up to the top of a
fresh air hill

You can never stop when the money is counting

Worry
till you drop, till you pay your bills



Got a rotten head-ache

Ready for a breakdown

The pressure of the pressure

Is more than
I can bare

The awfulness is spreading

It's really done my head
in

I think I've been selected

For more than my fair share



Go into the heart of the fresh air valley

Go and have a drink from the
mountain stream

Go and have a word before you go doolally

Have a
Dicky Bird with your self-esteem



Putting pen to paper

Applying for a loan

Ain't got no collateral

Nor's a cat in
hell

The bailiff's on the knocker

I'm going off my rocker

And
as regards contentment

I haven't had a smell



Go up to the top
of a very high mountain

Go up to the top of a fresh air hill

You can
never stop when the money is counting

Working till you drop, till you pay
your bills



Go into the heart of the fresh air valley

Go and
have a drink from the mountain stream

Go and have a word before you go
doolally

Have a Dicky Bird with your self-esteem



Go up to
the top of a very high mountain

Go up to the top of a fresh air hill

You can never stop when the money is counting

Worry till you drop,
till you pay your bills



Go into the heart of the fresh air
valley

Go and have a drink from the mountain stream

Go and have a
word before you go doolally

Have a Dick
