He was there with his hair and his glasses
I was 'ere with me beer and my fags, I mean my cigarettes
All the bums they had come for a sing-song
It's just as well smelly Nell wasn't there
Hey, Mr. Flute Man won't you play flute for me
Play flute for me
play flute for me
Hey, Mr. Flute man won't you play flute for me
Play flute, play flute for me
Now, filthy Phil chatted Lil, dadadada dada
Now! Filthy Phil chatted Lil in the corner
He blows his nose as he shows her...
Not yet! Now, only on the chorus now, you gotta let me sing the... (giggles) sing the verse! You naughty audience.
Now filthy Phil, he chatted Lil in the corner
He blows his nose as he shows her his badge, which he won in a war
And we smiled when he belched as he kissed her
It's just as well smelly Nell wasn't there
Hey, Mr. Flute Man won't you play flute for me
Play flute for me
Play flute for me
Hey, Mr. Flute man won't you play flute for me
Play flute, play flute for me
Hey!
