Lyrics Inanity Over Christmas - Madness

Inanity Over Christmas

We’d just like to bring you a bit of Christmas cheer
Please remember to keep a smile on your face till the New Year
Hello, this is Woody.
And we’ve got a little song for you.
Merry Christmas
Hiya, Merry Christmas everyone, Mark here.
I’m going to play a bit of bass for
you now
Hello, this is Chris, Happy Christmas
Hi, Lee Kix here, filling your stocking
I play sax
But also, I sing at the same time
Baffling, eh?
Well, it’s jingling bells, it’s Christmas time
Santa fetches his sack
Snowdrop glitter falls from the skies
To settle upon each and everyone’s back
Chimney sweeps take to the streets
In the ongoing situation
Pages freeze upon your pension book
And up flies the flag of inflation
And all this time I’ll be waiting up by the chimney stack
On this coldest year since brrrr, up above upon a reindeer’s back
Stop off at the Rock of Gibraltar
Tea under the of Malta
Wrap up warmer in Warsaw
Cruise over the flats of Alaska
And all this time I’ll be waiting up by the chimney stack
On this coldest year since brrrr, up above upon a reindeer’s back
I hope you’ve enjoyed this song so far.
This is Suggs, and now I am going to
take it away
OK, lads, let’s close it together
And all this time I’ll be waiting up by the chimney stack
On this coldest year since brrrr, up above upon a reindeer’s back
OK, quiet everybody.
This should go on here
Er, help me with those baggy, there
Oooh
Oooh
«You'll never take me alive, copper»
«Look, reindeer, don’t be silly, just come on down»
«I'm going to get that conny to ma»
«Don't waste anymore, sit down this is holding the pace up»
«Shove it, copper, I stick a grapefruit in your face»
«You what?
You’re out of a bloody job now come on down again»
«Nothing's going to stop us singing, copper, even if I have got to come down
and tell you myself, and stick it in your face»
«I'm going to send in the troops if you don’t come down»"
«We're going to keep singing in every home in the nation»
«Do whatever you want to do.
What?
That’s it!
«You stupid flatfoot, you’ll never take me alive.
I’m on top of the world, boy»
Up above the chimney stack, by the chimney
, Chris, quieten down over there, will you, I’m trying to get a message across,
you know
I’m going to change the world overnight, yeah
Thank you
Thank you
