The paperboy is working before he goes
Lying to the teacher he knows he knows
He didn't and he should've brought his
lines in yes-ter-day.
Ernie bangs the sound and the day begins
The letter box is open and your cash falls in
I'll meet you at the office
Just before the staff clock in.
Round are way the birds are singing
Round are way the sun shines bright
Round are way the birds sing for yer
'Cause they already know yer
The game is kicking off in around the park
It's twenty-five aside and before it's dark
There's gonna be a loser and you know the next goal wins.
Cab it to the front as it's called a draw
Everybody's knockin' at yours once more
Ernie bangs the sound but no-one's
spoken since half past four
La la la la la la
Round are way the birds are singing
Round are way the sun shines bright
Round are way the birds sing for yer
'Cause they already know yer
Round are way the birds are singing
Round are way the sun shines bright
Round are way the birds are minging
Round are way it's alright
Round are way yeah the birds sing for yer
'Cause they already know yer
