lyrics
days-with-a-y
We won't forget you on days with a y
We won't regret you a single time
We won't forget you and here's why
There you go again, running late, grabbing a chat at the school gate, so much we want to say before you go away, leaving us up to our necks in it, well thanks for that bitch, you're making the great escape,
just don't expect us to celebrate
We won't forget you on days with a
We won't regret you a single time
We won't forget you and here's why
Who will we talk about when you're not around
Whose constant misfortune has no bounds
Whose cheerful demeanour, belies an interior, held together, with sticky back plastic and bit's of elastic, you're fan-bloody-tastic, at not much
Just like us
We won't forget you on days with a Y
We won't regret you a single time
We won't forget you and here's why
So you're heading down under, and we hope it'll be wonderful,
I don't want to sound cynical, you think it rains here take a look at the news dear, down there it's biblical, you'll need that swim cert just to get a loaf, no joke, oh no, that sod Murphy travels too, and he's going with you
We won't forget you on days with a y
We won't regret you a single time
We won't forget you and here's why
Life has a way of just working out, one minute something to give out about, the next something to shout about, it's swings and it's roundabouts, it's top ten then it knocks you out, but you're the bouncing back kind, the best when you're back's to the wall kind, the good kind, the go on give it a try kind,
The unforgettable kind
We won't forget you
We won't regret you
We won't forget you
On days with a y
