King of Hi-Vis

All tickets sold, I head for the wardrobe
St John or ShowSec, which is it to be?
I’ve got a triple-A dangling from my lanyard
Wimbledon and WOMAD, Ryder Cup and V

(I don’t pay) I am the King of Hi-Vis
(Walk on through) Powered by bright waistcoats and bibs

Hard hat, tabard, torch and cocky toolbag
I’m Dave the Spark, or I could be Mike
Paramedics, police, authorised and holy
Be safe, be seen, be anyone you like

(I don’t pay) I am the King of Hi-Vis
(Walk on through) Powered by bright waistcoats and bibs
(Don’t fear Bert) Red Cross box, clipboard and chit
(Bert hears bells) Come be my queen of quick wit
