About an unsung hero
G

that moves away a dust
Some people make a fortune,

others earn a mint
A

My old man don't earn much.
A
D
In fact, he's flippin' skint.
He wears gold -blimey trousers
He looks a proper nana
D
G
He's got such a job to pull them up
D
G
that he calls them daisy roots.
Some folks give tips at Christmas,
and some of them forget
Now one old man got nasty,
and to the council wrote
D
G
Oh, my old man's a dustman,
He wears Scott Blimey trousers,
I say, I say, Les Yeah?
I found a police dog in my dustbin.
Well, how do you know he's a police
dog?
He had a policeman with him.
Though my old man's a dustman,
He got married recently,
We said, here, hang on, Dad,
it helps to pass the time.
He wears gold -blinded trousers
and he lives in a castle flat
My dustbin's full of lilies
Well, throw them away then I can't,
Lily's wearing them
Now one day whilst in a hurry
He hadn't gone for a few yards
What game do you think you're playing?
He wears got blimey trousers
and he lives in the council flat
What's you again?
My dustbin's absolutely
full with toadstool
How do you know it's full?
Because there's not mushroom inside
He found a tiger's set one day,
The tiger looked quite miserable,
Just then, from out a window,
where's me tiger's head?
Four foot from his tail!
He wears gold blimey trousers,
Next time you see a dustman,
looking all pale and sad
G
C
G
it might be my old Dan!
You
How did you like the song?
