(heaton/rotheray)

There's a boy with a brace across his teeth

White socks, tattooed underneath

Bus tickets crunched up in his palm

Stood there he's spinning a yarn



There's a girl with a plastic pair of shoes

Two eyes permanently bruised

Can't find the time to be alarmed

Just stood spinning a yarn



Just take your time

It'll work out fine

It'll do no harm

To spin your yarn



You do english

I'll do sums

You break fingers

I'll break thumbs

You play dads

And i'll play mums

You play glockenspiel

And i'll play drums



My name is derek from the den

I deal in shillings and in pence

I'll get you any deal you like

Ten sweets for a mountain bike you like



My name is mandy from the yard

I deal in crazy tarot cards

I'll tell you what the future brings

One cat and a dog that sings



You do english

I'll do sums

You break fingers

I'll break thumbs

You play dads

And i'll play mums

You play glockenspiel

And i'll play drums



Just take your time

It'll work out fine

It'll do no harm

To spin your yarn



You do english

I'll do sums

You break fingers

I'll break thumbs

You play dads

And i'll play mums

You play glockenspiel

And i'll play drums
