Verse 1

The paperboy is working before he goes,

Lying to the teacher he knows he knows,

He didn't and he should've brought his

lines in yes-ter-day.

Ernie bangs the sound and the day begins,

The letter box is open and your cash falls in,

I'll meet you at the office

Just before the staff clock in.

Chorus 1

Round are way the birds are singing,

Round are way, the sun shines bright,

Round are way the birds sing for yer,

'Cause they already know yer,

Yeah they already know yer_____________

Verse 2

The game is kicking off in around the park,

Its twenty-five aside and before it's dark,

There's gonna be a loser and you

Know the next goal wins.

Cab it to the front as it's called a draw,

Everybody's knockin' at yours once more,

Ernie bangs the sound but no-one's

spoken since half past four,

La la la la la la

Chorus 2

As Chorus 1

Verse 3

Round are way the birds are singing,

Round are way the sun shines bright,

Round are way the birds are minging,

Round are way it's alright

Round are way yeah the birds sing for yer,

'Cause they already know yer,

They already know yer___________________
