We All Live in a Red Transit Van
Original
song: “Yellow Sumbarine” by the Beatles
Lyrics: Mark Antony Richardson (Mk2)
In a pub in London town
I met a man
who saved canals
and he told me of his life
and all about
his dirty pals
So we drove down the M4
until we hit the H&G*
and we dug
for evermore
stopping hourly
for cups of tea
CH:
We all live in red Transit van
a red Transit van
a red Transit van
We all live in red Transit van
a red Transit van
a red Transit van
Now our friends are all aboard
Many of more of them are in the pub
and the cook
is in the hall
stirring up
some tasty grub
Rpt CH
As we dig this life of ease
every one of us has all we need
Tools and plant
bricks, mud and tea
t-shirts, trailers and RFB
Rpt CH
