Lyrics




I′ve just been on my holidays, to Blackpool by the sea
Although I'm feeling mighty fit my feet are troubling me
I′ve queued for hours and hours but I must say it was grand
To get as near as half a mile to several miles of sand
On Blackpool prom on Saturday I had a lovely time
I queued for breakfast,
I queued for lunch, I queued for bananas in a bunch
I queued for a glass of bitter, the old woman was watching the pram
I queued for the Beryl's gin and lime, it really was a pantomime
Before I got served they shouted
"Time", so I queued for a queue in a tram
On Blackpool prom on Saturday, oh what a lovely day
I queued for oysters, I queued for rock
I queued for a view of the Town Hall clock
I queued for the fun of queuing and I murmured "what a do"
A game of snooker would be great, I queued to put my name on a slate
Then after sixty minutes wait, I queued in a queue for a cue
On Blackpool prom on Saturday, the women looked simply grand
I queued for the dark 'uns, I queued for the fair
I queued for a chance to have my share
Oh boy was I up and doing, and I murmured "I love you"
Her figure it was like a dream,
Quite big at the front and broad at the beam
But it was the Missus that I′d seen,
So I flew from the queue, wouldn′t you?
