What About Me Then? by Bernard Cribbins Lyrics
[Verse 1]
What about me, then
Watching you twistin'
With other layabout
Instead of with me?
I know his girlfriend's
None too bright
But she's with me
So she's all right
Yeah, you talk about dozy
She's dim as can be
Some have it rosy, mate
But what about me?
[Chorus]
What about me?
What about me?
It's all right for you, mate
But what about me?
[Verse 2]
What about me, then
When we were waltzin'?
Out comes this fella with his
One, two, and three
I'd've blackened his mince pies
Except that he was twice my size
His variation's lovely to see
Congratulations, mate, but what about me?
[Chorus]
What about mе?
What about me?
It's all right for you, mate
But what about me?
[Bridge]
Woo
Woo!
[Verse 3]
What about mе then
Walkin' you home then?
I'm sittin' here sufferin'
As bored as can be
The only time you're
By my side
Is when they play the
Ballet glide
It's better at your place
With you on my knee
But, if your dad's at home
Then what about me?
[Chorus]
What about me?
What about me?
It's all right for you, mate
But what about me?
[Outro (spoken)]
[Woman]
'Ere
[Bernard Cribbins]
What?
[Woman]
Have you seen a bloke in a striped shirt with a couple of choc ices?
[Bernard Cribbins (singing)]
Forget about him, doll
What about me?
Woo-oo-oo!
What about me, then
Watching you twistin'
With other layabout
Instead of with me?
I know his girlfriend's
None too bright
But she's with me
So she's all right
Yeah, you talk about dozy
She's dim as can be
Some have it rosy, mate
But what about me?
[Chorus]
What about me?
What about me?
It's all right for you, mate
But what about me?
[Verse 2]
What about me, then
When we were waltzin'?
Out comes this fella with his
One, two, and three
I'd've blackened his mince pies
Except that he was twice my size
His variation's lovely to see
Congratulations, mate, but what about me?
[Chorus]
What about mе?
What about me?
It's all right for you, mate
But what about me?
[Bridge]
Woo
Woo!
[Verse 3]
What about mе then
Walkin' you home then?
