Bethnal Green, E2, October 1993
Come on board for the jamboree!
Bring your own plectrum and a cup of tea.
Smile inanely and greet with a hug
(Save the carpeted pews for the really smug).
Join in the dancing, swing with the beat,
Wave your arms wildly, lose control of your feet.
One step to the left, three steps to the right,
Gather them in and hold on tight.
Cos we’re on a journey to the Kingdom Come!
(Just don’t ask questions cos our will be done).
Bury yourself in a cosy cocoon.
Don’t let the world touch you (pretend you’re immune).
Cos this is ideal, the way it should be;
Each one of us happy and perfectly free.
Our music, our culture, are really unique,
Come separate yourself and join in the clique.
