SOFT PLAY - Chairman Of The Council Lyrics

SOFT PLAY Lyrics

"Chairman Of The Council"

It was a Thursday afternoon and I was in my abode
Minding my own when the issue arose
I glanced out my window and that's when I spotted thee
Cutting down a hedge on public property
Not on my watch
Not on my patch
I approached the front door and I took off the latch
I walked towards the men with such style and purpose
The look in his eye indicated he was nervous

I said, "Excuse me I say, is that your colleague?"
Stop what you're doing and listen to me
No, no, no, no stop talking and listen
Tell me at once who gave you permission
She did
Well it's not up to her
It's up to the council so you must defer
He looked at me perplexed so I thought it was time
To tell him that I'm

Chairman of the council
The Chairman of the council
Chairman of the council
I'm the Chairman of the council
Chairman of the council
Well done you
Chairman of the council
Chairman of the council
Chairman of the council
Well done you

It was a Thursday afternoon and I was sweeping the road
Minding my own when the issue arose
I glanced to my left and that's when I spotted this
Lady heading for me coming from the house opposite
The one that we were working on
I looked at her and smiled
To defuse her irritation, I could tell that she was riled
And I could really do without some petty confrontation
But that simply weren't an option her objective was blatant

She said "Excuse me I say, is that your colleague?"
Stop what you're doing and listen to me
No, no, no, no stop talking and listen
Tell me at once who gave you permission
I told her
I said we're working at this house
When the lady kindly asked us to cut the hedge down
It's obscuring her view, what's it got to do with you?
She said I'm Chairman of the council

Chairman of the council
I'm the Chairman of the council
Chairman of the council
Chairman of the council
I'm the Chairman of the council
Well done you
What did you just say to me?
Chairman of the council
I'm the Chairman of the council
Chairman of the council
I'm the Chairman of the council
Chairman of the council
I'm the Chairman of the council
Well done you
Why I oughta

Chairman of the council
Chairman of the council
Chairman of the council
Well done you
Chairman of the council
Chairman of the council
Chairman of the council
Well done you
