this is hilarious - scarily accurate performance

can't decide which lines are funnier - either
"if I had some tigers I'd train them....."
or "that was lurking,
round the gherkins."

and Billy even sang it himself at Glasto!

Unisex Chipshop:

I used to buy my chips from an oppressive chip shop regime.
The girl who worked there, she seemed happy,
But I knew it was not what it seemed.

"Do you want salt and vinegar"
was what they made her say,
But in the language of the ghetto,
That means "help, I'm a woman in chains"

I wanted to free her.
In my dreams I would see her.
Running naked through the woods round Rainham,
if I had some tigers I'd train them.....
to protect her,
from the sexual fascism that was lurking,
round the gherkins.

I'd lean across the counter and we would talk,
I carved her name "Debbie" on a little wooden fork.
But into the shop came a skinhead gang,
and snatched the fork from my hand.

Debbie, she looked at me,
to assert my masculinity.
I said "Oy!",
they said "What?",
I said "Nothing..."
