A follow on to I Got Natural Eemunity You know when I was a kid in a large family We never had much money So we had a bath only once a week Simply because heating water cost money Something we didn't have A simple way of life eating simple food Anyway days at school were spent alongside rich kids In their spotlessly clean uniforms With their sniffles and coughs and runny noses Spluttering over their hygienically prepared lunch boxes But Us poor kids with a cheese sandwich in a paper bag Rarely got a cough or cold

When I Was A Kid
A follow on to I Got Natural Eemunity You know when I was a kid in a large family We never had much money So we had a bath only once a week Simply because heating water cost money Something we didn't have A simple way of life eating simple food Anyway days at school were spent alongside rich kids In their spotlessly clean uniforms With their sniffles and coughs and runny noses Spluttering over their hygienically prepared lunch boxes But Us poor kids with a cheese sandwich in a paper bag Rarely got a cough or cold
