"Daddy Needs A Throne" lyrics - CAMBERWELL NOW

At home, on a label on a bottle
In a cupboard in the kitchen
There's your proof, Daddy on a throne

After a long hard tiring day
Answering the telephone, no time for a lunch break
Daddy needs a Mummy to fix his drink

A few square feet of city centre office space
That's his domain
And the information therein contained
The furniture and fittings, it's his responsibility
When he pops it or when he retires, whichever comes first
It will take a long time to break in the new boy
Profits will slide
A golden wristwatch, a golden handshake at rainbow's end
Some people in his office aren't pulling their weight
But he soldiers on

After eight hours at work behind his des
Daddy needs a grand-plumed hat
As tall as Rocket's chimney

If the Daddy had no arms
Was sat upon his throne
Grand-plumed hat upon his head...

Just because you can sit on a horse doesn't mean you can ride
Can't get ahead, get a hat
Just you wait 'til your father gets home
Just because you can sit on a horse doesn't mean you can ride
Can't get ahead, get a hat
Just you wait 'til your father gets home
