Lyrics below...One of my favourite Stereophonics songs, from their first album Word Gets Around. Couldn't find it anywhere on YouTube so I decided to upload it, typifies all that is great with the Phonics, great tune along with typically down to earth and light hearted lyrics.
Shopping spree for the family tree
Haven't seen your family tree in quite a while
Too many sandwiches and wine
Sherry stains down your best mans tie
What a speech
The band arrives
The granny's cry
The singer's tongues in the bar maids mouth
What a voice
Grandpa drunk a drop or two
And his head's still sunk in the portaloo
What a man
You bought a sequin dress for your chicken breast
The disco's late and he's overpaid tonight
You got a diamond ring and the man who sings
The man who sings made love to the barmaid twice
And that's just tonight
The blue rinsed hairs lift up their chairs
The band's too loud
They're off down stairs
What a noise
The bride and groom they dance their dance
And the singer mimes there's still a chance
The bar maid smiles
You bought a sequin dress for your chicken breast
The disco's late and he's overpaid tonight
You got a diamond ring and the man who sings
The man who sings made love to the barmaid twice
And that's just tonight
You bought a sequin dress for your chicken breast
The disco's late and he's overpaid tonight
You got a diamond ring and the man who sings
The man who sings made love to the barmaid twice
Oh Grandpa drunk a drop or two
His head's still sunk in the portaloo again
The bride and groom they dance their dance
The singer mimes there's still a chance tonight
And the bar maid smiles
the barmaids defo a slag
