My people rang me up a coupla weeks ago, Yeah I've got people, and a phone, and a grasp on the passage of time Yeah they rang me up, said, "Tim, will you go on Ruth Jones' show?" They want you to sing a song, it'll be fine, fine, fine. But the problem with my particular oeuvre Is that half my songs are five minutes and over And the wisdom here at the BBC Is that viewers switch off if you go past three And a lot of my songs have a bit of bad language Which causes the viewers untold anguish It seems their tolerance for smuttiness is reserved For pussy puns on Are You Being Served?

Two, three, four (skin) I need a little happy clappy country song Nice and repetitive and not too long Boring enough but not too boring With a key change here to prevent me snoring I need a song that is only three minutes Without no buggery or blasphemy in it Something with a pleasing rhyme and rhythm Well if you can't beat 'em, get conservative with 'em I need a song that causes no offense To flog more tickets to my concerts By convincing the viewer that musical satire Hasn't progressed since Victor Borge You've got a telly and I wanna be in it And apparently you'll only watch for 3 minutes Yeah apparently you'll only watch for 3...
