Autumn Almanac

Lyrics

[Chorus] From the dew-soaked hedge creeps a crawly caterpillar When the dawn begins to crack It's all part of my autumn almanac Breeze blows leaves of a musty-coloured yellow So I sweep them in my sack Yes, yes, yes, it's my autumn almanac [Verse 1] Friday evenings, people get together Hiding from the weather Tea and toasted buttered currant buns Can't compensate for lack of sun Because the summer's all gone [Chorus] La-la-la, la, la, la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la Oh, my poor rheumatic back Yes, yes, yes, it's my autumn almanac La, la, la, la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la Oh, my autumn almanac Yes, yes, yes, it's my autumn almanac [Verse 2] I like my football on a Saturday Roast beef on Sundays, all right I go to Blackpool for my holidays Sit in the open sunlight [Bridge] This is my street, and I'm never gonna leave it And I'm always gonna stay here If I live to be ninety-nine 'Cause all the people I meet Seem to come from my street And I can't get away Because it's calling me (Come on home) Hear it calling me (Come on home) [Chorus] La-la-la, la, la, la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la Oh, my autumn Armagnac Yes, yes, yes, it's my autumn almanac La, la, la, la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la Oh, my autumn almanac Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes [Outro] Bop-bop-bopm-bop-bop, whoa! Bop-bop-bopm-bop-bop, whoa! Bop-bop-bopm-bop-bop, whoa! Bop-bop-bopm-bop-bop, whoa! (Yes) Bop-bop-bopm-bop-bop, whoa! (Yes) Bop-bop-bopm-bop-bop, whoa!
