UnTunes:Young Northeners
They pulled in just behind t'Leeds Bridge
'E lays 'er down, he frowns
Eeh my life's a fooneh thing, am ah
Still too young?
'E kissed her then 'n there
She took his ring, took his babbies
'Took 'im minutes, took 'er nowhere
'Eaven knows, she'd have tekken anythin, but
Eeh bah gum
She wants t'young northerner
Young northerner, young northerner, she wants
t'Young northerner
Eeh bah gum
She wants t'young northerner
Scannin' life thruh t'picture window (uhuh)
She finds t'slinky vagabond
He coughs as he passes her Mini
But 'eaven forbid, she'll tekk anything
But the nutter, and 'is type, all for nothin'
He misses a step and cuts 'is 'and, but
Showin' nowt, 'e swoops like a song
She cries "Where 'ave all Papa's heroes gone?"
Eeh bah gum
She wants t'young northerner
Young northerner, young northerner, she wants
t'Young northerner
Eeh bah gum
She wants t'young northerner
All t'way from Nottingham
'Er pint-drinker begs off t'bathroom floor
"We live for just these twenteh years
Do we have to do us sen in for t'fifty more?"
Eeh bah gum
He wants t'young northerner
Young northerner, young northerner, she wants
t'Young northerner
Eeh bah gum
He wants t'young northerner
Does tha remember, tha Prime Minister? (huuhu)
Does tha remember, t'bills tha has to pay?
Or even yesterdeh?
Has tha been a silly Southener? (huuhu)
Just thar and tha idols sing falsetto (huuhu)
'bout flat caps, flat caps everywhere, and
Not a myth left from the council house
Well, well, well, would tha carreh a razor (huuhu)
In case, just in case o' depression? (huuhu)
Sit on tha hands on a bus o' Northeners
Blushing at all the flat cat wearers
In't that close to love?
Well, in't that poster love?
Well, it in't that Barbeh doll
Her hearts been brohken just like thee and
Eeh bah gum

You ain't a Yorkshireman and you ain't a Lancastrian
A Yorkshireman's got a white rose and a Lancastrian got a red rose
Northener's got respect, and Southeners are daft
Mam's got cramps, and look at yer 'ands ache
(I heard t'news todeh, oh lad)
I got a suite an' you got defeat
In't there a staffy who can bark no more?
And, in't there a Southener I can
Sock on t'jaw?
And, in't there a bairn I can hold without judging?
In't there a pen that will write before they die?
In't you proud that tha's still got faces?
In't there one flippin' song that can mekk mi
Brekk down and cry?
Eeh bah gum
I want t'young northerner
Young northerner, young northerner, I want t'young northerner
Eeh bah gum
Young northerner
Young northerner
Young northerner, young northerner, I want t'young northerner
Eeh bah gum
Tha wants I

Young northerner, young northerner, I want t'young northerner
Eeh bah gum

Young northerner, young northerner, I want t'young northerner
Eeh bah gum
