throw the 'r' away
proclaimers, the
since you said my accent was bad
i'm just going to have to learn to hesitate
on your saxon ears don't grate
but i wouldn't know a single word to say
if i flattened all the vowels
on your green and pleasant land
when my diction is such a disgrace
i'm just going to have to learn to hesitate
on your saxon ears don't grate
but i wouldn't know a single word to say
if i flattened all the vowels
you say that if i want to get ahead
the language i use should be left for dead
it doesn't please your ear
and though you tell it like a leg-pull
it seems your still full of john bull
i could talk like a bee dripping honey. i'm just going to have to learn to hesitate
on your saxon ears don't grate
but i wouldn't know a single word to say
if i flattened all the vowels
you say that if i want to get ahead
the language i use should be left for dead
it doesn't please your ear
and though you tell it like a leg-pull
i think your still full of john bull
since you said his accent was bad
i'm just going to have to learn to hesitate
on your saxon ears don't grate
but i wouldn't know a single word to say
if i flattened all the vowels
if i flattened all the vowels
