DIP FED FRED
As recorded by Madness feat. Ian Dury
(From the 1999 Album WONDERFUL)
[Chorus]
Cm We want Freddie for our leader G Freddie is a man of class G We want Freddie for our leader Cm All stand and raise your champagne glass
[Verse 1]
Cm Gentlemen and assassins and ladies of the night G I call upon you this evening in the hope of shedding some light G I can't go into detail or finger unfounded fools Cm But there are some here amongst us that are not playing to the rules Cm I've rounded up the low-life and local CID G Offered a free massage or else the third degree G There is no simple solution in this life we lead Cm So make things easy for yourself to the baronage concede
[Chorus]
Cm We want Freddie for our leader G Freddie is a man of class G We want Freddie for our leader Cm G Cm All stand and raise your champagne glass
[Verse 2]
Cm Peace shall not prevail in Purley came the stark warning today G From his hospital bed Drip Fed Fred vowed he was here to stay G Cm "I'll tell you something for nothing", he claimed, "Never in all my nights G Cm Have I felt so intimidated by the cheap tactics on display"
[Piano Solo]
Cm G7 Cm
[Interlude] N.C. Ahh-ah-ah-ah N.C. Ahh-ah-ah-ah
[Chorus]
Cm We want Freddie for our leader G Freddie is a man of class G We want Freddie for our leader Cm All stand and raise your champagne glass
[Verse 3]
Cm And approaching the pulpit, the Right Honourable Reverend Greene Cm "We're gathered here this evening to pay our due respects G To Drip Fed Fred who late last night fell out of his prison bed G We know the nonce behind it, who slipped the night PD - ooh G7 Cm The word is out now without doubt you will answer to me" Cm Gentlemen and assassins and ladies of the night G I call upon you this evening in the hope of shedding new light G There is a simple solution, one called honour amongst thieves Cm So we'll take pity on your souls and only cap your knees [Interlude] N.C. Ahh-ah-ah-ah N.C. Ahh-ah-ah-ah N.C. Ahh-ah-ah-ah N.C. Ahh-ah-ah-ah
[Chorus]
Cm We want Freddie for our leader G Freddie is a man of class G We want Freddie for our leader Cm All stand and raise your champagne glass Cm We want Freddie for our leader G Freddie is a man of class G We want Freddie for our leader Cm All stand and raise your champagne glass...
