He's wake boarding with Taika Waititi
Him and Millhouse have got an all sugar Squishy
Woah that's good squishy, they say
Lale is picking his own strawberries
In Dedham Vale with Dudley Sutton
He's drinking milkshakes cold and long
On a lilo watching a video
Of the new Apple watch being unboxed
 Lale and Lale's friend Jill have made soup
The whole veg box in one go, even the swede
Lale hasn't turned up for work
Lale hasn't turned up for work
Lale hasn't turned up for work
Lale hasn't turned up for work
Lale is in Turtle Bay, spunking his cash on sides
Lale's found a mint copy of Sgt Pepper on vinyl in Barnardo's
Lale is halfway through Lindsay Anderson's If
The boys are shooting up the school
Lale is refusing to listen to a Morrissey apologist
"That joke isn't funny anymore," he says, tartly
He's just put the top down
He's the only car on the A35
He's thought of a great band name: Pope Slap
Lale hasn't turned up for work
Lale hasn't turned up for work
Lale hasn't turned up for work
Lale hasn't turned up for work
Lale is listening to the New Statesman podcast
Lale is laughing out loud
Welcome to the Jungle comes on 
Lale is having a bubble bath
Lale is ordering  a new cock ring
Lale has not turned up for work
Lale is having goodbye sushi with Lily James at Victoria Station
No, it's Waterloo
It always makes him think of the Bourne Ultimatum
They've got a stack of yellows
They only have yellows
To hell with the cost!
Lale hasn't turned up for work
Lale hasn't turned up for work
Lale hasn't turned up for work
Lale hasn't turned up for work
Lale is in the Norfolk Lavender fields reconnecting with his dad
"I'm so glad we did this, Lale"
"Yeah, me too, Dad, me too"
Lale slips his hand through the loop of his dad's arm
And his dad squeezes it against his quilted jacket
Till Lale can feel his rib cage
It feels warm and safe
As the sun slides down the vast Norfolk sky in pink
And Lale texts his boss a photo of the lavender in the gloaming
It's so beautiful
It's almost unreal
Lale hasn't turned up for work
Lale hasn't turned up for work
Lale hasn't turned up for work
Lale hasn't turned up for work
Lale hasn't turned up for work
Lale hasn't turned up for work
Lale hasn't turned up for work
Lale hasn't turned up for work
