Lyrics:
Gets up to a seven-forty-seven every day
To a copy of the Daily Mail in his letter tray
Chequered slippers by the bed
Powdered aspirin for his head
One poached egg on toast
A dash of salt a pinch at most

Bell rings in the hallway but it's junk mail again
Petition from the council now you can never win
And it's two for one, and it's five pounds off
Deal of a lifetime now you can spread the cost
So Mr Resistor makes his way down the drive
Carrying his bag for life and eyeing up his neighbours wife

And he sings
Do do do, do-do, do do do
Oh he sings
Do do do, do-do, do do do

Buying a spark plug at the car boot fair
Offcuts at the butchers straightening his hair
Pushing trolleys screaming prams
She's two weeks late for best laid plans

Now it's two for one and it's five pounds off, aww but
Deal of a lifetime now you can spread the cost
So Mr Resistor sits to watch the crowds go by, do do do do-do
Studying their faces and the curve of the sky

Perfectly happy not to feel and not know why, aww he just
Thinks what he thinks and he doesn't know how to cry
No he doesn't

And in the slender hours he potters down the high street
Shutters coming down he's alone again
And it's all for one and he's five years off
