Riff 1
Al had the guile and the sideways smile
Bad boy and god
Beck knew how to push a boy to blush
Known as The Fox
Tom came out in June to a crowded room
No one was shocked
Ed had the hair, the shoes and the blues
Got me arrested once
Chorus
N.C. F Fm G
‘Will I ever get this song off my lips’ is what you said
F Fm
We were at each other’s buttons and zips
G
In the blossom shed
Riff 1
Joe wanted to go before he could
Joe’s doing good
Cath was my all and every day
She married in May
