Version 1 of the lyrics

1  It's six a.m. and even Big Ben   It's 6.00am       and even Big Ben 1
  Is trying to get his head down for a kip  Is trying to get his head down for a kip
2  But no sooner is it down and it's on with dressing gown   But no sooner is it down                                      2
3  While this city very rarely loses grip   And then it's on with dressing gown 3
4                                                For this city very rarely loses grip 4
5  But I have a friend who's never up by ten   But I have a friend who's never up by 10.00 5
  He's fast asleep with mouth open wide  He's fast asleep with mouth open wide
6  He's lost a lot of jobs but he's won a lot of friends   He's lost a lot of jobs, but                                 6
1  he's won a lot of friends1
  And he says to me, he cannot tell the time  And he says to me, he cannot tell the time
7                                                         It's 7.00am and we're coughing up the phlegm 7
1  It's seven a.m. and we're coughing up the phlegm   1
  Spitting out the taste of night before  Spitting out the taste of night before
8  And we'll vomit and we'll choke just to climb their tatty rope   And we'll vomit and we'll choke                                      8
9  Well, this city has its charm and its claw   Just to climb their tatty rope                 9
10                                                        Well this city has its charm, and its claw 10
11  And he'll blame his clock or he'll say he's lost his socks   And he'll blame his clock                                         11
12  And they'll tell you that he's been bitten by a snake   Or he'll say            he's lost his socks           12
13  His excuses are an art from the bottom of his heart   And they'll tell you that he's                              13
14  And he thinks of them whenever he awakes   been bitten by a snake                       14
15                                His excuses are an art 15
16  It's eight a.m. and we're on the road again               From                              the bottom of his heart 16
2  And he thinks of them whenenver he awakes2
3  It's 8.00am we're on the road again3
  Racing for a placing at the top  Racing for a placing at the top
17  And     says green for go for the people in the know   And it says green for go                                  17
4  For the people in the know4
  But for the others all it says is red for stop  But for the others all it says is red for stop
18                                It's cold and its damp 18
19  It's cold and it's damp and they've dug him a grave   And                             they've dug him a grave 19
20  And the ten fifteen merchant's still in bed   And the 10.15 merchants             still in bed 20
21  And scrawled upon the headboard for the whole wide world to see   And scrawled upon the headboard                                        21
  Is 'Died In The Arms Of Big Ted'   For the whole wide world to see
5  "Died In The Arms Of Big Ted"5
