He's alright, Mr Brown. Yeah, don't worry about him He has been sitting up there for as long as I can remember Yeah, he's always there, dawn till dusk Loves to wave at the drivers coming past, especially rush hour You know, he knows most of them by name And, well, they often stop off, see how he's getting on I think he's worn those bricks shiny from the years he's been sitting there Yeah, I know, I know I mean, most days he's as happy as Larry Every now and again he has a bad run and starts effing and blinding like, you know flipping the V's to people as they go past But, yeah, you can stop and say "Hey, Mr Brown, what's up, what's up?!?" And he'll, you know, he'll calm right down Says "Oh Dot, I just, I got out of bed the wrong side this morning, I really did" And he's back to normal So, yeah, don't worry about Mr Brown, he's alright Yeah, he's always well turned out There in his tweed jacket, shirt and tie, flat cap But the funny thing is he's always got shorts on Yeah, they've got a lovely crease ironed down them Always shorts, brogues and a pair of socks pulled up to mid-calf So, yeah, he's a little bit eccentric But he says to me, "I like to look smart, but I don't want to miss the sun I love the sun on my knees" And I say, "well, you're alright, Mr Brown You're not going to get burned around here, are you?" He's not on his own there, I mean Jean from number 34, she visits, brings him cake or a little bottle for Christmas And he's got his duck for company. Yeah, he's got a pet duck, a pet duck called Martin Lovely little fellow He's quite unusual, to be honest He's very well behaved He sits there all day with Mr Brown and watches the world go by But he, well, he did study political economy at Warwick University I mean, he dropped out after the second year, but in fairness to him, he is a duck A duck of few words But he's, he's always around Choice comments, keeps Mr Brown at bay And, yeah, very partial to a pint is the duck, Martin He, or is it a drake? He's a boy, he's a drake, isn't he? He loves to pint of Old Crafty Hen But he can't get a little bit lippy afterwards, or beaky And so you have to watch out And particularly keep him away from the mince pies at Christmas, because he will not stop And there's nothing worse than a fat duck Or a fat drake, for that matter Yeah, they enjoy a sing-song as well at the end of that wall And, Jean, Mr Brown and Martin And, you know, Bill from 13, yeah, if he's not in one of his moods, he'll come down and join in They have a right old time of it, don't they All the classics And then if they really want to piss everyone off, they do a few Westlife numbers But, I mean, personally, I think there's no need for all of that But, you know, Mr Brown So anyway, yeah, don't worry about Mr Brown Give him a wave as you go past Drop him and the bird off a drink or two at Christmas And maybe some sunblock for those knees And if you're ever worried, just text me and I'll talk along Especially if he's getting a little bit spicy with the traffic But, yeah, I'll see you later I'm going down to meet Bill at the cafe Yeah, not after last time But, yeah, hopefully he'll be alright All right, you take care then. See you later Bye
