The Lyrics
Oh I really like these specs
I seem to wear them all the time
They cost me £15 a day
I really wish they were mine
You know I think I'm quite a fan
They make me feel so immature
You know I wish I had a way
To make my glasses more secure
There's just no string
They're getting in the way
They won't stay on my head
They're just no good
It's such a shame
Why did I pay that price?
I can't believe it's true
There wasn't too much choice
Why did I drive to Dover?
There's no spare
How can I keep them clean?
How can I keep them clean?
How can I keep them clean?
Thought I've put them there
But
They never can be seen
They never can be seen
Oh there's no spare
But
It's made in the UK
It's made in the UK
It's made in the UK
Oh I need another pair
What happens if they break?
What happens if they break?
Oh now the frames have detached
I'll use wooden sticks instead
I even try the cable tie
I really need some brand new specs
Next time I buy some with blue strings
And they will make me so happy
Maybe I'm just overlooking
Maybe there's the ones for me
There's just no string
They're getting in the way
They won't stay on my head
They're just no good
It's such a shame
Why did I pay that price?
I can't believe it's true
There wasn't too much choice
Why did I drive to Dover?
There's no spare
How can I keep them clean?
How can I keep them clean?
How can I keep them clean?
Thought I've put them there
But
They never can be seen
They never can be seen
Oh there's no spare
But
It's made in the UK
It's made in the UK
It's made in the UK
I need another pair
What happens if they break?
What happens if they break?
There's just no string
They're getting in the way
They won't stay on my head
They're just no good
It's such a shame
Why did I pay that price?
I can't believe it's true
There wasn't too much choice
Why did I drive to Dover?
There's no spare
How can I keep them clean?
How can I keep them clean?
How can I keep them clean?
Thought I've put them there
But
They never can be seen
They never can be seen
Oh there's no spare
But
It's made in the UK
It's made in the UK
It's made in the UK

Strange, the site went down for an hour or two, and now there's no update? By the way I liked the parody
