Lyrics Dan the Plan - Alan Hull

Dan the Plan

What went wrong with your plan man, was it too good to be true
No-one here could understand why, disappointing it fell through
With one hand on the stirrup, and one hand in the stew
No one knows that better than you
What went wrong with your city, the Brazilia of the North
Isn’t it a pity, that no one knew it’s worth
But the Civic Centre shines like money in your hand
Let’s raise another glass to Dan the Plan
Chorus:
Oh Dan, you’re a terrible man
Can’t you see what you’ve done?
you’ve spoiled all the fun
Oh Dan Dan… you killed me old man, you turned this house, into a caravan
You know it used to be mine, even the Fog on the Tyne
Now it’s all snow and rain, am I wrong to complain?
Am I wrong to complain?
What went wrong with your plan man, did you never realise?
Surely we could see that you had to subsidise to survive
But the law for once was on our side, and behind them bars you’ll stew
No one knows that better than you
