Hello I bet you're wonderin' why we're here
Sittin' on our bums without a stitch o' gear
Well as it happens our budget has expired
And everything's gone back
to the place from whence it's hired
And so although you know we never bitch
There's not a single funny set
we haven't got a stitch
'Cause we've overspent our budget, Gawd, not half
Now there's nothing left to make you buggers laugh
Our cameraman is drunk
Our producer's done a bunk
Our director's lyin' down with an aspirin
The man who is in charge of all the money has a large
Question mark hangin' over him
And his future
(And so although our budget is quite steep)*
(Six thousand quid or so which isn't very cheap)*
(That's what it cost to make you bleeders smile)*
(And we've been and overspent it by a mile)*
Con-sequently we're sittin' here on our bums
In the BBC towels we borrowed from our chums
in the wardrobe department
There's (approximately)* five minutes or so to go
well maybe three
Perhaps they'll switch us off early to save electricity
Oh they have
