lirik lagu throw the ‘r’ away – proclaimers
the proclaimers – throw the ‘r’ away
i’ve been so sad
since you said my accent was bad
he’s worn a frown
this caledonian clown
i’m just going to have to learn to hesitate
to make sure my words
on your saxon ears don’t grate
but i wouldn’t know a single word to say
if i flattened all the vowels
and threw the ‘r’ away
some days i stand
on your green and pleasant land
how dare i show face
when my diction is such a disgrace
i’m just going to have to learn to hesitate
to make sure my words
on your saxon ears don’t grate
but i wouldn’t know a single word to say
if i flattened all the vowels
and threw the ‘r’ away
you say that if i want to get ahead
the language i use should be left for dead
it doesn’t please your ear
and though you tell it like a leg-pull
it seems your still full of john bull
you just refuse to hear
oh what can i do
to be understood by you
perhaps for some money
i could talk like a bee dripping honey.
i’m just going to have to learn to hesitate
to make sure my words
on your saxon ears don’t grate
but i wouldn’t know a single word to say
if i flattened all the vowels
and threw the ‘r’ away
you say that if i want to get ahead
the language i use should be left for dead
it doesn’t please your ear
and though you tell it like a leg-pull
i think your still full of john bull
you just refuse to hear
he’s been so sad
since you said his accent was bad
he’s worn a frown
this caledonian clown
i’m just going to have to learn to hesitate
to make sure my words
on your saxon ears don’t grate
but i wouldn’t know a single word to say
if i flattened all the vowels
and threw the ‘r’ away
flattened all the vowels
and threw the ‘r’ away
if i flattened all the vowels
and threw the ‘r’ away
