Ratatatay-Chumbawamba

[00:14.30]George looks gorgeous in pinstripes, [00:18.03]pocket handkerchief and cravat, [00:21.04]swaggering out of the Band On The [00:24.15]Wall in a burgundy Homberg hat, [00:27.67]singing "Ratatatay, ratatatay!" [00:42.39]George after-hours and the worse for whisky [00:46.63]when somebody shouts "Hey, you!" [00:49.36]in a pitch-black Manchester backstreet [00:53.27]well, what's a poor singer to do [00:56.05]but sing "Ratatatay, ratatatay"? [01:11.28]Two men flashing a knife blade, [01:15.00]saying "give us your notes and your watch" [01:18.89]Singing the backstreet stand-off [01:22.29]to the rhythm of the fear and the scotch. [01:26.44] [01:42.10]George, not wanting to feel the knife, [01:45.91]cornered and speeding and scared ... [01:48.90]from the back of his mind comes 'Ursonate', [01:53.21]Sound and fury and words. [01:55.23]He sings: "Ratatatay, ratatatay!" [02:09.43] [02:24.28]"Ratatatay, ratatatay!" [02:38.19]So the robbers are stuck to the spot now, [02:42.52]watching George as he sings for his life. [02:46.17]Menace turns to panic and they turn and run [02:50.00]and the song waves goodbye to the knife [02:52.75]singing "Ratatatay, ratatatay!" [03:07.58]"Ratatatay, ratatatay!" [03:21.14]"Ratatatay, ratatatay!" [03:32.10]
