Ba-Ba-Bankrobbery (British-British-Version)

Old Mother Hubbard,
my cupboard is bare.
My last few checks
are bouncing everywhere.

No scraps for the cat,
no bone for the dog
and I'm losing all my friends,
because my phone's cut off.

The bailiff keeps knockin'
on my front door.
He's taken everything,
but he still wants more.

I gave all I can take.
It's a world against me!
So how do I make
a bankrobbery?

Ba-Ba-Bankrobbery...
No money for nothing for Woofy and me.
Ba-Ba-Bankrobbery...
No money for nothing for Woofy and me.

Black thick stockings
and I can't see a sausage.
To the bank with the
water pistol in my pocket.

And the water leaks out.
I'm wet and soggy.
Knees are knocking
and it's hot in the stocking.

I say: „Hands up please,
everybody just freeze!
All hit the deck
with the hands behind the neck!“,

And then the granny turns around
and says: „Sunny Jim,
you'd see there was a queue,
if you'd removed that thing!“

Ba-Ba-Bankrobbery ...
No money for nothing for Woofy and me.

After hours of waiting,
I was standing at the desk.
When the kids said: „Mommy,
that black has wet himself!“.

I said: „Look out there,
there's a camera watching me!
I'm a little bit nervous,
it's my first time on TV.“

I said: „I'm nasty and I'm vicious,
and my hands on the trigger.
It's your money or your life.“
But she didn't lift the finger.

The cashier said: „Sonny,
stop messing around!“,
I said: „OK, sorry,
I'd like to open an account.“

Ba-Ba-Bankrobbery ...
No money for nothing for Woofy and me.

Das Böse ist immer und überall.
