The Lyrics
Any body
Who weighs more than Noddy
Will soon fall through that floor
At Ol' Roy's Cowboy Housebuilders
We're unable
To build something stable
You know it's gonna fall
At Ol' Roy's Cowboy Housebuilders
You need guidance
'Bout subsidance
Read the print on your loan
It starts to crumble
So bye bye home sweet home
Bricks and mortar
Melt like water
Don't you call me a crook
My guys will find you
Rumours are a-flyin'
People are a-dyin'
Reckon that they they're lyin'
And writs - we're sendin' em
Anybody
Who says work is shoddy
Will soon hear from our lawyer
At Ol' Roy's Cowboy Housebuilders
Houses are a-fallin'
P'licemen are a-callin'
Ain't it so appallin'
Their dough - we've taken it
Leave 'em stranded
Once they've handed
Over all of their cash
That's why Roy's driving
Around in something flash
Making good, here
Well, he would, dear
If he's ever around
It's still unfinished...
I know that he said he
Should be done already
Look it'll be ready
By Fri.. or Saturday
Roy is odd, he
Must think that he's God he
Will work six days, no more
At Ol' Roy's Cowboy Housebuilders
Who weighs more than Noddy
Will soon fall through that floor
At Ol' Roy's Cowboy Housebuilders
We're unable
To build something stable
You know it's gonna fall
At Ol' Roy's Cowboy Housebuilders
You need guidance
'Bout subsidance
Read the print on your loan
It starts to crumble
So bye bye home sweet home
Bricks and mortar
Melt like water
Don't you call me a crook
My guys will find you
Rumours are a-flyin'
People are a-dyin'
Reckon that they they're lyin'
And writs - we're sendin' em
Anybody
Who says work is shoddy
Will soon hear from our lawyer
At Ol' Roy's Cowboy Housebuilders
Houses are a-fallin'
P'licemen are a-callin'
Ain't it so appallin'
Their dough - we've taken it
Leave 'em stranded
Once they've handed
Over all of their cash
That's why Roy's driving
Around in something flash
Making good, here
Well, he would, dear
If he's ever around
It's still unfinished...
I know that he said he
Should be done already
Look it'll be ready
By Fri.. or Saturday
Roy is odd, he
Must think that he's God he
Will work six days, no more
At Ol' Roy's Cowboy Housebuilders

Aw Phil, whatever happened to you? You parodied a tune from my favorite movie of all time, and you might not even know that I commented on it saying it was a 555.
