Intro
Verse 1
I read the
news today, oh
boy
About a
lucky man who
made the grade
And though the
news was rather
sad
Well, I just
had to laug

I saw the
photogra
ph
Verse 2
He blew his
mind out in a
car
He didn't
notice that the
lights had changed
A crowd of
people stood and
stared
They'd seen his
face before
Nobody was really sure
If
he was from the House of
Lords
Verse 3
I saw a
film today, oh
boy
The English
Army had just
won the war
A crowd of
people turned
away
But I just
had to look
Having
read the
book
I'd love to tu
rn
you

rchestral glissando)
[Middle 8]
Woke
up, fell out of bed
Dragged a comb across my
head
Found my
way downstairs and
drank a cup
And
looking up I
noticed I was late
Found my
coat and grabbed my hat
Made the bus in seconds
flat
Found my
way upstairs and
had a smoke
Somebody spoke and I
went into a dream.

Verse 4
I read the
news today oh
boy
Four thousand
holes in Blackburn,
Lancashire
And though the
holes were rather
small
They had to
count them all
Now they know how many holes it
takes to fill the Albert
Hall
I'd love to tu
rn
you
on
