Town Called Ugley - Ward Thomas

Left in plenty of time and thank God we did

The clock kept screaming the time and the tires skid

Turn left, 'bout a half hour later

We were right back where we began

When we started this trip

It wasn’t just my mood that was going down hill

It even felt we were being pursued when the car stood still

Turn right, the Tom-Tom said

I wanna chuck it right out of the car

And leave it for dead

I swear we drove right past the old kings head

25 times or more

The wipers stopped and Catherine said

«I can’t take this any more»

So Lizzy jumped out and took the wheel

She coulda took us to the moon and back

By the time that we got out and slammed the door

In a town called UGLEY

Swerved more than a couple times for a black alpaca

Delayed in every kind of way so time was a factor

Only made worse by a broken down tractor

Turn round and slam on the brakes

Or we will drive straight down the road to find our next mistake

I swear we drove right past the Old Kings Head

25 times or more

The wipers stopped and Catherine said

«I can’t take this any more»

So Lizzy jumped out and took the wheel

She could of took us to the moon and back

By the time that we got out and slammed the door

In a town called UGLEY

So after driving right past the Old Kings Head

55 times or more

The tire’s flat and the battery’s dead

it doesn’t matter any more

We survived this drive to tell the tale

What the hell did we come here for

We couldn’t wait to get out and finally slam the door

On a town

That bloody town

It’s a cotton-picking town called UGLEY
