I read the news today oh boy
About a lucky man who made the grade
And though the news was really sad
Well I just had to laugh
I saw the photograph
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
But nobody was really sure
If he was from the House of Lords
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 turn you on
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 to a dream
I-I-I-I-I
I read the news today oh boy
Four thousand holes in Blackburn, Lancashire
And though the holes were really small
They had to count them all
Now they know how many holes it
Takes to fill the Albert Hall
I'd love to turn you on
Albert Hall
Thank you
Bless you
Thank you
