Hello Bob, it's Archie, me telly's on the blink Without me telly on it's even hard for me to think I watch it of an evening snuggled up beneath me doona Can you come round. Not later, I'd rather it were sooner
'Cos every night I watch it and it helps me cop some zed's It calms me down and stops all thoughts from spinnin' in me 'ead Can you tell me Archie, what's wrong with your television Describe the symptoms to me with clarity and precision

One of that era would surely have lines of a horizontal direction Are you sure they're vertical, after considered reflection 'Course I know me vertical from me horizontal slant Get over here now, I can't stand all day and rant
But Archie, your television is resting on its side So horizontal seems vertical, if logic be applied 'Course I watch it like that, I'm lying in me bed And it saves me the trouble of havin' ta lift me 'ead
