John's Mate Dan Lyrics

D'you know the one about John's mate Dan?

Yeah Dan's the man, you know he can

Get you anything, albeit second-hand

He's well good that mate Dan

Well anyway, one day he had

A bag of pens from the old dog track

Like the little ones you get with Argos pads

And he brought them round our mate John's flat

Emptied out the middle bits

Stacked them high like pyramids

If there's one thing you could say about Dan

He certainly weren't dispirited

Used the tubes for blowing through

And rattling out percussion tunes

With a ragtag band of homeless dudes

Believe it or not

They were actually quite good
