Lyrics
They're digging holes in Haughgate Street, I'll take the long way round
I'm heading down to Billie's house on the other side of town
Billie's built a rocket ship, she's taking off for Mars
Stop off for some breakfast there, then head out to the stars
There's a busker down on Durie Street, he ain't no Guitar George
He's banging out some rock'n'roll and only knows two chords
But I can't help but sing along, the kid, he got some style
Think I'll hang on Durie Street and listen for a while
Happy birthday Billie McGhee
The birds are singing in the trees
The kids are dancing in the street
And it's the end of the world for you and me
There's panic in the car park now, it's supermarket wars
Someone's taking hostages in aisle number four
And Mrs. Carter's losing it, man she can hardly breathe
Cause Mr. Carter's home at six and there's nothing in for tea
There's could'a'beens and beauty queens, wannabees and fakes
I said it then and I'll say it now, what difference does it make
Billie says it's all a dream, I know just what she meant
Cause she's the only one around that's making any sense
Happy birthday Billie McGhee
The birds are singing in the trees
The kids are dancing in the street
And it's the end of the world for you and me
