JCB Song - Nizlopi

I heard this song on the radio last night and it really made me smile, and laugh, and want to be 5 again. So I thought I would share. Think I might be a bit late catching on with this one (looks like it was record of the week on Jo Whiley a few weeks ago but I never listen to Radio 1) so if you have heard of it, I'm sorry. Actually, no I'm not - why didn't you tell me about it?



You can check out the video here but it' the lyrics I love.

Well, I'm rumblin' in this JCB.
I'm 5 years old and my dad's a giant sitting beside me.
And the engine rattles my bum like berserk
While we're singin, 'Don't forget your shovel if you want to go to work!'

My dad's probably had a bloody hard day
But he's been good fun and bubblin and jokin' away
And the procession of cars stuck behind
are gettin all impatient and angry, but we dont mind.

An' we're holdin up the bypass
oh
Me and my dad havin a top laugh
oh woah
Sittin on the toolbox
oh
And I'm so glad I'm not in school, boss
So glad I'm not in school

Oh no...

And we pull over to let cars past
And pull off again, speedin by the summer green grass
And we're like giants up here in our big yellow digger
Like zoids, or transformers, or maybe even bigger

And I wanna transform into a Tyrannosaurus Rex!
And eat up all the bullies and the teachers and their pets
And I'll tell all my mates that my dad's B.A. Baracus
Only with a JCB and Bruce Lee's nunchuckas

And We're holdin up the bypass
Weh Oh weh oh
Me and my dad havin a top laugh
Weh Oh weh oh
Sittin on the toolbox
Weh Oh weh oh
And I'm so glad I'm not in school, boss
So glad I'm not in school

And we're holdin up the bypass
Weh Oh weh oh
Me and my dad havin a top laugh
Weh Oh weh oh
I'm sittin on the toolbox
Weh Oh weh oh
And I'm so glad I'm not in school, Boss
So glad I'm not in school

I Said I'm Luke, I'm five, and my dad's Bruce Lee. Drives me round in his JCB.

I'm Luke, I'm five, and my dad's Bruce Lee. Drives me round

And we're holdin' up the bypass
Weh Oh weh oh
Me and my dad havin a top laugh
Weh Oh weh oh
And I'm sittin on the toolbox

And I'm so glad I'm not in school, Boss
So glad I'm not in school

I'm Luke, I'm five, and my dad's Bruce Lee. Drives me round in his JCB.
I'm Luke, I'm five, and my dad's Bruce Lee. Drives me round in his
Aw, I'm Luke, I'm five, and my dad's Bruce Lee. Drives me round in his JCB.
I'm Luke, I'm five, and my dad's Bruce Lee. Drives me round in his JCB.

It's one of the bookies favourites for Christmas number one apparently!

I'm yet to hear this single... I don't know if that's a good thing or not.

Oh I love this song! These guys are from Leamington Spa, which is where I lived when I was at Warwick. So.. that's kind of a connection. Let's make them xmas number one!
