When I was small My dad used to tell me Bedtime stories In cockney rhyming slang I can still hear him Woke up one morning, put on my almond rocks Walked down the apples and pears and Got on the dog and bone while I lit an oily rag... Uncle George was handsome and elegant He built me a fantastic doll's house I gave it to my mum's friend Maureen Who had a handicapped child called Julie Aunt Jess gave me a QPR badge I've still got it to this day, Jay You'll never guess what... Rolf Harris fancied my mum He'd serenade her, 'Patty I love you...' As for me, well, you'll never guess I was once pursued by a Great Train Robber! Eventually I agreed to go for a drink And he only bought his mum! (Lovely woman, I have to say) Anyway, getting back to mum She told Rolf what to do With his didgeridoo Well, you would, wouldn't you? As for dad, my hero, my bete noir Woke up one morning, put on my almond rocks Walked down the apples and pears and Got on the dog and bone while I lit an oily rag... You're having a giraffe... Goodnight, sleep tight Goodnight, sleep tight
