Ian Dury And The Blockheads - Hey, Hey, Take Me Away lyrics

(spoken)
What´s all this spunk on the duckboards?
C´mon Lawrence... c´mon Lawrence...
Let´s go out & have a prayer meeting
Take a chance with our new shotgun
Hey! C´mon Lawrence!
It is time we escaped again, my son
Oi!
C´mon!

aaargh
Hey, hey, take me away I hate waking up in this place
Theres nutters in here who whistle & cheer

When they are watching a one-legged race
And a one-legged prefect gets me in bed

Makes me play with his dick
And One legged horn & he has shouting the odds
Driving me bloody well sick

When I get better, when I get strong
Will I be alright in the head?
They are making me well, if they are caring for me
Why do they boot me & punch me?
Why do they bash me & crunch me?
Some of the counterpanes are pink & other ones are blue

Hey, hey, take me away
From the ones that go mad every night
They are crazy & dangerous one-legged sods
Who´ve to sit down when they bite
One-legged Peter who knows bloody well
He has got worse ever since he came in
This other poor c*nt, he was born back-to-front
And he has always got stuff on his chin

When I get better, when I get strong
Will I be alright in the head?
Give me a sweet & accost me
I will do hope God hasn´t lost me
I know it is brown & the walls have been scraped with blood where someone hanged themself

I hope so!

Get it?

Hey, hey, take me away
I am the 1st to put last in the past
Take the handcuffs away & please do what I say
´Cos I hate the untouchable cast
I wanna be normal in body & soul
And normal in thought, word & in deed
And everyone here will whistle & cheer
And be happy to see me succeed

Cheerful Charlie Ashforth
Now that I am better, now that I am strong
Will I be alright in the head?
Grey worry lines in all my designs
And life´sn´t rosy, it is red
As to why I wrote this song
I aint done nothing wrong, but I am unhappy
Question: Do you blame your life on life
And say it all began before the nappy?

Hey, hey, take me away
(REPEAT)
