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 yesterday.

2) 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

Round are way the birds are singing,

Round are way, the sun shines bright,

Round are way, the birds sing for yer,

Cos they already know yer,

They already know yer.

Intro

3) The game is kicking off in around the park,

Its twenty five aside and before its dark,

Theres gonna be a loser,

And you know the next goal wins.

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

Everybodys knocking on yours once more,

Ernie bangs the sound,

And no-ones spoken since half past four.

Chorus

Instro (Chords as verses)

Round are way the birds are singing

Round are way the sun shines bright

Round are way the birds are minging

Round are way its alright

Round are way the birds sing for yer
