Seemed too normal to be an MP (Member of Pariament). Is "guest" above correct - chords are OK - but if you don't know the tune, well ....it could be anything Happy memories |

Following on from Council meetings as to ways to augment The Rates (Pre Council Tax) , sthis song emerged as a not very serious suggestion ! The Birmingham Brothel - Stan Crowther C G F C Some councillors up there in Birmingham Town have had quite an interesting dream G F C A Council Run Brothel is what they propose , we think its an excellent scheme G D F So ladies take note , for its time to apply , if you want to be picked for the team C F C G C Its a bit of all right we'll be there every night when they open the Birmingham Brothel F C G C Its a bit of all right,we'll be there every night , when they open the Birmingham Brothel The opening night will be quite an event , and all the top brass will be there To see the golden key turned in the lock by his worship , the bleeding Lord Mayor And the vicar will say , at the close of the day m, a short dedicatory prayer Its a bit of all right , we'll be there every night , when they open the Birmingham Brothel The Methodist choir will sing 'Bless This House' and the minister will come , if he dares But the vicar , of course will be right out in front , to the girls he will say a few prayers First he'll address then , then he'll undress them and lead them away up the stairs Its a bit of all right , we'll be there every night , when they open the Birmingham Brothel The whole City Council will all want to join the committee selecting the staff And the work study experts will soon be called in , which should be a bloody good laugh They'll measure production in the art of seduction and mark it all down on a graph Its a bit of all right , we'll be there very night , when they open the Birmingham Brothel A real money spinner this venture should prove , as soon as the ladies begin And the Treasury Department will need extra staff , to cope with the cash rolling in But the Council , of course , will be let in for free , just to check on the service within Its a a bit of all right , we'll be there every night , when they open the Birmingham Brothel |
