The Great British class system played for laughs? Surely not - there's a serious point being made here, and I'll tell you all about it just as soon as I've polished awf me jellied eels, old boy.
(ps. yer dinner's gettin' cold)
lyrics
This just in, there are unconfirmed reports of hobnobbing with the hoi polloi
Bit dead in ere tho innit, I think I’ll ave a tune
Babylon is burning and your dinner’s getting cold
Easy money Robin Banks that one never gets old, does it
Seaside special hi de hi
We got jellied eels, we got saveloy
hobnobbing, hobnobbing, hobnobbing with the hoi polloi
hobnobbing, hobnobbing, hobnobbing with the hoi polloi
I said hey babe take a walk on the Lakeside
One hundred and eighty
Well I never, clever trevor, don’t you dare baguette about me
Share your pain, I am the bread man, buy one get one gratuit
Take me to the next boulangerie
hobnobbing, hobnobbing, hobnobbing with the bourgeoisie
hobnobbing, hobnobbing, hobnobbing with the bourgeoisie
Let them eat gateau, driver, to the chateau
Hobnobbing with the privileged class
Hands off our private parts
Got caught short on a sticky wicket,
Your bucket, sir, would you care to kick it
Your majesty if you get a minute
Giz a knighthood, go on, gizzit, gizzit..
Yeah and a fancy manor in the country to go with it
We are not amused, ghastly oik, dreadful fellow
Hobnobbin Hobnobbin Hobnobbin with the chattering classes
Hobnobbin, Hobnobbin, disappearing up their Kyber passes
Hobnobbin with S.F.Sorrow, Ignatius Reilly, Bukowski and Zorrow
Oohlala comme ci comme ca, c’est la vie mais oui n’est pas
Oohlala blahblahblah, c’est la vie etcetera
Ain’t it the truth, not that you’d know it know it
‘Get up stand up fall over poet
better go and get your barnet sorted an Mick the taylor to stich you up
There’s a right old knees up going down over on the Isle of Dogs
Who’s been feeding ya porky pies, use yer loaf son a word to the wise
Babylon’s burning , your dinner’s gone cold
Easy money Robin Banks I told ya, never gets old
Hobnobbin till the cows come home, when in Bognor when in Rome
hobnobbing, hobnobbing, hobnobbin like there’s no tomorrow
hobnobbing, hobnobbing, Clapham Junction via Sodom and Gomorrah
Don’t be shy now don’t be coy,
who’s for jellied eels and who’s for saveloy
hobnobbing, hobnobbing, hobnobbiin with the hoi polloi
hobnobbing, hobnobbing, hobnobbiin with the hoi polloi
This ain’t the Ritz and this ain’t the Savoy, it’s jellied eels or saveloy
hobnobbing, hobnobbing, hobnobbing easy peasy
hobnobbing, hobnobbing, hobnobbing
lemon squeezy
Hobnobbin makes me queasy,
What’s the matter with ya,
Too cheesy?????
There's talk that Billy Rocker is the result of an undocumented genetic experiment deemed a travesty never to be repeated.
Nevertheless, Billy went on to find complete obscurity playing two chord jazz with Erroneous Punk.
During a particularly arduous triangle solo he received a psychic telegram to spread the gospel of backwards rockabilly as far as his one good eye can see....more
