Liverpool Lullaby Lyrics - Crash Test Dummies

Oh you are a mucky kid 

Dirty as a dustbin lid 

When he hears the things that you did 

You'll get a belt from your dad 

You really have your old man's nose 

So crimson, in the dark it glows 

If you're not asleep when the boozers close 

You'll get a belt from your dad 

You look so scruffy lying there 

Strawberry jam all through your hair 

Though in the world you haven't a care 

And your mummy's got so many 

Oh you are a mucky kid 

Dirty as a dustbin lid 

When he hears the things that you did 

You'll get a belt from your dad 

Although you have no silver spoon 

Better days are coming soon 

Sister's working at the mill 

And she gets her pay on friday 

Perhaps one day we'll make a splash 

If the irish sweeps provides the cash 

We'll have a house that's oh-so posh 

And buy your dad a brewery 

Oh you are a mucky kid 

Dirty as a dustbin lid 

When he hears the things that you did 

You'll get a belt from your dad 

You really have your old man's face 

You're growing up a real hard case 

But no one else can take your place 

Go to sleep for mummy
