  • Spoken: Now here's a little story
    To tell it is a must
    About an unsung hero
    That moves away the dust
    Some people make a fortune
    Others earn a mint
    My old man dont earn much
    In fact he's flippin skint

    He wears cor blimey trousers and he lives in a counsil flat
    He looks a propper nana in his great big Publisher: T.R.O. INC.
