Spend it all like Viv'
give some
buy some
throw some and why not
try being a *** like me?

I am the original
the one and lonely
blueprint
for being skint

never won a sausage
on a gee gee
or backed a winning dog
at the track in Hackney
someone should call for
a stewards inquiry
(I might have a bet on that)

Never known a cure for the poorest of the poor
that wasn't self-inflicted.
