    You've come right out the other side of the forest of irony and ended up in the desert of wrong.

      Superb band. They have other tracks on you tube and myspace. Chippie Tea is another fave.
      I am not qualified to give the above advice!

      Step back, have a think and adjust my own own attitude from time to time

          lyrics to Chippy Tea :

          Well it's the end of the working week
          and I'm rushing back home quick
          I'm starving
          I'm fair klempt tha knows
          I could eat a butter brick
          I need stodgy food without the fuss
          Then wife gives me a plate of cous cous

          I said I'm sorry love but I want's a chippy tea

          Chippy tea, chippy tea
          I want's a chippy tea
          But you keep givin posh nosh
          it don't agree with me
          I don't want lobster thermadore
          Or your rasberry coulie
          I'm a working man from Lancashire
          and I wants a chippy tea

          Plenty salt and vinegar on that love
          Leave it open will ya darling

          It's dark when I sets off to work
          It's dark when I come home
          And all I want is simple food
          Not Din Sum from Ken Hom
          Her inspiration's ready steady cook
          Am I eating it?
          Am I f...
          it's friday night
          and i want a chippy tea

          Chippy tea, chippy tea
          I want's a chippy tea
          But you keep givin posh nosh
          it don't agree with me
          I don't want lobster thermadore
          With your rasberry coolie
          It's Friday night
          I'm within my rights
          I wants a chippy tea

          "And in the red kitchen
          William is preparing griddled squid
          With coconut pesto
          Chilli jam and an ice cointreau custard"

          "And in the Lancashire kitchen
          Bernards brought back from the chippy
          Chips, peas, pudding, gravy wrapped
          a carton of curry, a barmcake and a can of vimto
          Now"

          Chippy tea, chippy tea
          I want's a chippy tea
          But you keep givin posh nosh
          it don't agree with me
          I don't want lobster thermadore
          Or your rasberry coulie
          I'm a working man from Lancashire
          and I wants a chippy tea

          Got any of your satchets of tomato sauce
          Throw us a chicken in there will you love

          Wigan chippys they have baby's heads
          In St Helen's they serve splits
          But tha's giving nouvel cuisine
          And all I want is chips
          I don't care if it's one of Nigela's
          I think that's a funny name for a fella
          I'm not eating it
          I wants a chippy tea

          One last time

          Chippy tea, chippy tea
          I want's a chippy tea
          But you keep givin posh nosh
          it don't agree with me
          You can keep your Jamie Olivers
          Or your Gordon Ramsey's
          I'm a working man from Lancashire
          and I wants a chippy tea

          Right
          Throw a sausage in that batter love
          Pass us one of those 2p forks

                  I've had a brainwave, regarding the ICT issue. If we all develop our own strange language which is a mixture of all regional sayings and words. The ICT imports won't be able to understand us and therefore not be able to do the job and leave the jobs for us!

                  Sound me old mushbaba blue!
