Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh Aah aah aah aah aah aah We welcome one and all Together in this hall There's room for everyone Together we are strong Stick together, all the rank and file It's fine at the bottom of the pile Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh Aah aah aah aah aah aah It's lonely at the top But there's a bigger drop To get there one must climb On those they've left behind Stick together, all the rank and file Give them just an inch, they'll take a mile We may be the bottom of the pile But they can't take away our style Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh Aah aah aah aah aah aah

When you gonna let your hair down? When you gonna let your hair down? I've noticed that you're always working lately I know you've got a lot to do Let me know next time you're feeling lazy I'll come and spend some time with you Don't forget to let your hair down, baby Have yourself a little fun We could even spend the night together A little bit of one-on-one relaxation When you gonna let your hair down? When you gonna let your hair down? I know you're under lots of pressure lately And you know that I'm there for you Let me know next time you're feeling lazy I'll come and spend some time with you Don't forget to let your hair down, baby Have yourself a little fun We could even spend the night together A little bit of one-on-one relaxation When you gonna let your hair down? When you gonna let your hair down? When you gonna let your hair down? Tell me, darling When you gonna let your hair down? When you gonna let your hair down?

Al Baba, Al Baba, Al Baba, Al Baba, Al Baba Al Baba, Al Baba, Al Baba, Al Baba, Al Baba Deep in the forest Walking home one night Al Baba the woodman Beheld a wondrous sight A thieves' hidden stronghold With no lock or key He heard their secret password Open Sesame! Al Baba, Al Baba, Al Baba, Al Baba, Al Baba Al Baba, Al Baba, Al Baba, Al Baba, Al Baba Once it was quiet Inside Ali snook Of the precious treasure A single bag he took A fair man was Ali Unlike his brother, Cas His brother's greed betrayed him And the thieves, they kicked his arse ("Let's kick his arse!") Al Baba, Al Baba, Al Baba, Al Baba, Al Baba Al Baba, Al Baba, Al Baba, Al Baba, Al Baba

They pit the labourer against the foreigner They call a traveller a lazy scavenger They use the newspaper to stir up hate in you We need a takeover, let's shoot the messenger Propaganda, fabricated facts Leading weapons of the ruling class Just as deadly as a poison gas So shoot the messenger They could enlighten us, instead they frighten us When they could pacify they choose to vilify They use the newspaper to stir up hate in you We need a takeover, let's shoot the messenger Shoot the messenger, boycott the papers

It's another, another fuckin' hangover This one's the mother, the mother of all hangovers It's another, another fuckin' hangover This one's the mother, the mother of all hangovers Not last night, but the night before Two bad lads came knocking at my door One had booze, the other had speed And the rest, my friends, is elementary It's another, another fuckin' hangover This one's the mother, the mother of all hangovers It's another, another fuckin' hangover This one's the mother, the mother of all hangovers

You let yourself go, rudeboy, you let yourself go You let yourself go, rudeboy, you let yourself go You used to be lean, mean and very, very clean Now you're chubbier and grubbier than others on the scene I said oh, rude boy, you've let yourself go You let yourself go, rudeboy, you let yourself go You let yourself go, rudeboy, you let yourself go You used to be a heart-throb, used to be a star Now you're nibbling and dribbling and snoozing on the bar I said oh, rude boy, you've let yourself go Vanity goes out the window when there's work to do You let your hair grow longer, and your beard too You've outgrown your old dance moves, but you've got nothing new Don't get 'het up about it, but do something about it You've let yourself go

Grass is greener and the girls are keener When he's on his holiday From the brochure he's decided it looks kosher Once he's there he's probably going to stay Warm burritos, served with cold mojitos And his favourite cigar By the first night he'll have cancelled his return flight As he dances gaily on the bar The skies are grey at home today He's off away on holiday Days are longer and the beer is stronger And the locals are a scream By the sea, as he escapes reality Our boy's the cat that finally got the cream The skies are grey at home today He's off away on holiday Days are longer and the beer is stronger And the locals are a scream By the sea, as he escapes reality Our boy's the cat that finally got the cream
