These legs are skinny now
But how long will it last
Put the ointment on your brow
And get a goodnight’s sleep
Because you have so much to do tomorrow
And it’s your sister’s birthday
Gotta celebrate
Gotta put her face on a cake
This will be a weird one
And you’re not having as much fun
And you miss your Mum
This year you’re playing tricks
Avoiding all the lunatics on Kingsland Road
As you walk home to see your boyfriend
Such a beautiful man
And you know he loves you more than anything
But does he understand
This will be a weird one
And you’re not having as much fun
And you miss your Mum
