What I could do for breakfast" Is to wake up, in the morning, and I jump straight outa bed I grab a hould of luminous jacket and shake off me ould porter head I haven't time for the fancy breakfast or put muesli in the bowl And just edge of this, that I'll get itch, for the jumbo breakfast roll Two eggs, two sausages, two rashers, two bacon, two pudding, one black, one white All stacked like a tower on top of each other and rolled up good n' tight If yer havin some tae the milk's over there, you'll find sugar in the bowl Say's she do ya want some sauce on that? Say's I, I do in my . . . roll Now whether you're a chippy or a plumber or a brickie or a team just down the road Or a shower of lads coming back from the raz in the crowd or on your own If you working up a ladder or peeling a pigs bladder or find yourself digging in a hole There's no sight better, than melting butter, on jumbo breakfast roll (repeats the chorus) Now just the other day, after me roll and tae in me gut I got an awful ache Well I went to me doctor say's he that's an artery blocker you're a having every morning for break So to change me lifestyle he has me walking five mile and seeing a dietitian called Noel But hanging from me head to see two runny eggs and a jumbo breakfast roll (repeats the chorus) SAD VERSE Now the years have moved on, and my life has changed And now I'm a different man, I'm after losing three stone Doing a line with a girl called Joan, and we're both veg-it-tare-i-an Now my blood sugar levels are good to go, and my cholesterol is low But in the morning I'd sell my soul Just to sit outside Annie Mac's on Emo, Statoil, Shell forecourt And ate a jumbo breakfast roll (repeats the chorus) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jumbo Breakfast Roll」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
