Original text and translations
Past two o'clock
all singing and dancing
past two o'clock
the party's in full flow
pity the neighbour
do him a favour
give him some earplugs
for good behaviour
sing to him gentle
or he'll go mental
he's started shouting
words non-parental
(Goodness!)
his ears are ringing
stones he'll start flinging
he doesn't like the
songs that we're singing
He's pulled the fuse now
We'll have to choose now
whether to stop and
admit that we lose now
despite that fellah
we're feelin' mellah
since we're unplugged
we'll sing a cappella
