Ricky Wilson playing ukele @ 100 Club 16-08-2012

LYRICS:

Beautiful is not the right word for describing my bird, no, you'll need one that's larger than that, it's like describing the sea as wet.

Not for every pearl in the world would I give up my girl, there's nothing worth more than that, except maybe God's autograph.

So if you see her you tell her, I wrote her a letter, turned it into a song it won an Ivor Novella, learnt the ukelele to be able to play it, that's another ambition ticked off.

And everyone that sees her agrees from Barracas to Leeds, that's nothing worth fighting for, she's the single shot that won Great Britain the war.

So if you see her you tell her, I'll love her forever, if she don't like the song then I could knit her a sweater, bake her a pie and a cake then maybe we could escape now that's all my ambitions ticked off.

The room is full of people I've met, most of whom I forget, but I'll tell even them when I'm asked the first song I write, might also be my last.

Because I played it to Nick, he said it was shit, the verse was the worst, the chorus don't fit but now I'm playing it to you and that's a dream coming true and I've had all my ambitions ticked off.
