73 High Street

I'm sure you remember Madness song "Our house", here is our version.

Arne wears his Sunday vest
Delphine's tired she needs a rest
The kids are playing up downstairs
Jonny's sighing in his sleep
T's got a deadline to keep
He can't hang around



Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, in the middle of our

Our house it has a crowd
There's always something happening
And it's usually quite loud
Pauline (our landlady) she's so house-proud
Nothing ever slows her down
And a mess is not allowed (???)


Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, in the middle of our

Our house, in the middle of our street
(Something tells you)
(That you've got to get away from it)
Our house, in the middle of our

Frisco gets up late for work
Adri has to iron his shirt
Then she sends the kids to school
Sees them off with a small kiss (besito!!)
She's the one they're going to miss
In lots of ways


Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, in the middle of our

I remember way back then when
Everything was true and when
We would have such a very good time
Such a fine time
Such a happy time
And I remember how we'd play
Simply waste the day away
Then we'd say
Nothing would come between us (except for some NPower bills)
Four (well five) dreamers



Arne wears his Sunday vest
Delphine's tired she needs a rest
The kids are playing up downstairs
Jonny's sighing in his sleep
T's got a deadline to keep
He can't hang around

Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, in the middle of our
Our house, was our castle and our keep
Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, that was where we used to sleep
Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, in the middle of our street
