I pCut on my raincoat to mDake it rain
and sEmure enough the skies opened Dup again
I drCeamed of you as I wDalked to the shops,
you were dBmancing with the wallies on EmTop of the Pops
Conce C/Bin a whDile
GenCnady GeC/Brasimov dDrops his smile
and yCou can see that his aDim's
a portfBmolio pregnant with gEmains
he's bCeen C/Bup all nDight
moving the goalpCostC/Bs Am G
like a jBmackdaw with a fiery brand,
sEmpread the news all over this land
Amrobin hood and his merry men
are nDever never never coming back again
