Half Man Half Biscuit: Blue Badge Abuser

Blue Badge Abuser

A dirty rounder, a no-good fraud
A ne’er-do-well of the highest accord
I’ve got the supermarket sympathy vote
I’ve got a ten year old doctor’s note

‘Cos I’m a Blue, Blue Badge Abuser
I’m a Blue, Blue Badge Abuser

I park up in the pouring rain
The space was empty, who’s to complain
And if they did, I’d say I’m due for the op
And sprint wilfully off to the shop

‘Cos I’m a Blue, Blue Badge Abuser
I’m a Blue, Blue Badge Abuser

(Fetch my stick, Margaret!)

I used to favour Justice and Truth
An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth
One day I know I’ll have to face his wrath
A walk in hell for a walk-in bath

‘Cos I’m a Blue, Blue Badge Abuser
I’m a Blue, Blue Badge Abuser
I’m a Blue, Blue Badge Abuser
I’m a Blue, Blue Badge Abuser
Blue Badge Abuser

Note from Chris The Siteowner:
I tend to act on lyric corrections usually only when somebody backs up an initial suggestion. If a correction doesn't get a seconder, I usually let it go (unless it's so obviously the right thing to do). However, if you feel strongly that I shouldn't have ignored a suggestion, feel free to re-post your comment and ask for some support!
