I mean so did Ian Dury.


I wanna be straight, I wanna be straight

I'm sick and tired of taking drugs and staying up late

I wanna confirm, I wanna conform

I wanna be safe and I wanna be snug and I wanna be warm


I want to be straight, I want to be straight

I wanna create a place of my own in the welfare state

Brr, gonna be good, brr, gonna be kind

It might be a wrench but think of the stench I'm leaving behind


I wanna be straight, I wanna be straight

Come out of the cold and do what I'm told and don't deviate

I wanna give, I wanna give, I wanna give my consent

I'm learning to hate all the things that were great when I used to be bent!


Could be not straightness

Dum dum dilley

Might lead to greatness

Dur yuh dum der

Owing to lateness

My chance has only just arrived, ha


Ow! Straight, straight, straight, straight

Straight, straight, straight, straight

Straight, straight, straight, straight, straight


I wanna be straight, I wanna be straight

I'm sick and tired of taking drugs and staying up late

I know that you're right, I know I was wrong

So thanks very much, please keep in touch, I'll be rhyming along


I wanna be straight

I wanna be straight

I wanna be straight

I wanna be straight (straight, straight)

I wanna be straight (straighter would be great)


I mean you can't say fairer than that. WELL CAN YOU?

    • Anyone upgraded their TV for Christmas?! I'm looking for a smallish Smart TV I can use with earbuds. Not more than 56cm high and  25cm deep. A 26" one used to fit.  Thanks!
    • It wasn't an antique and bric-a-bac shop but an antique market with a number of different traders, the cafe supported all the dealers in bringing in custom, and was good enough to generate trade for them. It was Rodney Franklin's and his partners enterprise, he previously had an antique shop in Queenstown Road in Battersea. His late wife ran the cafe (she was a very fine actress, it was a 'resting' job).  It was on the corner of a junction on the left as you head towards Camberwell. And almost opposite, if memory serves at all, an MFI style furniture outlet. 
    • i used to go there in the late 80's and '90s (?) the food was served cafeteria style and there was limited choice, but what there was alays tasted amazing!  The garden was an absolute paradise, you could sit in it to lunch in the summer!  i've tried to locate its site but Walworth Road has changed so much since then - does anyone remember the house number?
    • This is very true. For some people, not even just the elderly, their pet/s may be their most important companion.
