There are lots of words that mean

You've been landed in the cart

But i've found a new one better than the rest

It's a little word called lumbered

And i speaks it from the 'eart

When it comes to getting lumbered i'm the best

I get l-u-m-b-e-r-e-d lumbered

It's enough to drive a fella round the bend

Once i found a four leafed clover

And a lorry ran me over

So you see i still got lumbered in me end

Like the time i crossed a gypsy's palm with silver

And she said 'there's a stranger in your life'

I got l-u-m-b-e-r-e-d lumbered

'Cos the stranger caught me with his wife

I get l-u-m-b-e-r-e-d lumbered

Once i won two hundred thousand on the pools

So i handed in me ticket

Told the foreman where to stick it

And i told him that includes me bag of tools

Then i bought meself an 'aase in monte carlo

(ahem house)

I was putting on me suit to catch the boat

When i found that i'd been well and truly lumbered

'Cos the coupon was still in me coat

If i ever get me hands upon the idiot who wrote

'Into every life a little rain must fall'

I shall take his book of poems

And i'll stuff them up his throat

'Cos it seems to me as though i get it all

I get l-u-m-b-e-r-e-d lumbered yeah

And my luck with womengs just too rough for words

On a foursome or a twosome

Guess who gets the one that's gruesome

Me address book's full of really ugly birds

But one day i met a lovely little darling

'Bout the only bit of luck i've ever had

I took her come to meet the family and got lumbered

'Cos me darling ran off with me dad

I get l-u-m-b-e-r-e-d lumbered

And the latest lumber makes me want to spit

I wrote newley a long letter

Saying why arengt pop songs better

He put music to it and it was a hit

Everywhere i go i hear his flaming number

In the chinese his parade it's number ten

(yen ten)

It's called 'l-u-m-b-e-r-e-d lumbered'

But i'm never gonna get never gonna get

Never never never gonna get never gonna get

Never never never gonna get lumbered again
