Lyrics

WHAT'S WITH TERRY


We begin our sad tale when Terry was young
When Enid Blyton proved lots of fun
But his vision dimmed his adventurous nights
He, the Secret Seven under artificial lights

Chorus
Oh dear, what's with Terry?
Oh dear, it’s not right
The local girls are not so pretty
But they are if you see it through Terry's sight

Then came the day Terry always did dread
Christmas had come, a present lay on his bed
A Johnny 7 or a cuddly toy?
No, horn-rimmed glasses - fit for a boy!

Repeat chorus


Wearing glasses never became a craze
So the years, they passed in a hazy daze
Even at matches, he'd shout and roar
Pretend he'd seen another George Best goal

Being Joe 90 has proved a success
But he's no Clark Gable nevertheless
They found the answer to this classic case
It wasn't the glasses - it’s his horrible face!

Repeat chorus (x2)
