I Want to Be Straight |
I’m Charley, you know |
I’m Norman pleased to meet you |
I’m Mickey, hello |
Wilko |
I’m Johnny, how are you doing Harry? |
My name is David |
And I’m Ian and guess what? |
Oi! |
I want to be straight, I want to be straight |
I’m sick and tired of taking drugs and staying up late |
I wanna confirm, I wanna conform |
I wanna be safe and I wanna be snug and I wanna be warm |
I want to be straight, I want to be straight |
I wanna create a place of my own in the welfare state |
Brr, gonna be good, brr, gonna be kind |
It might be a wrench but think of the stench I’m leaving behind |
I want to be straight, I want to be straight |
Come out of the cold and do what I’m told and don’t deviate |
I wanna give, I wanna give, I wanna give my consent |
I’m learning to hate all the things that were great when I used to be bent! |
Could be not straightness |
Dum dum dilley |
Might lead to greatness |
Dur yuh dum der |
Owing to lateness |
My chance has only just arrived, ha |
Ow! |
Straight, straight, straight, straight |
Straight, straight, straight, straight |
Straight, straight, straight, straight, straight |
I want to be straight, I want to be straight |
I’m sick and tired of taking drugs and staying up late |
I know that you’re right, I know I was wrong |
So thanks very much, please keep in touch, I’ll be rhyming along |
I want to be straight |
I want to be straight |
I want to be straight |
I want to be straight |
I want to be straight |
I want to be straight |
