Lyr Req: Boys Will Be Boys (Proper Little Madams)

In the very early 80s, life was made jollier and more fun by Proper Little Madams. They were Sue Smythe, Cathy Evans and Kim Pickett. They seemed to be everywhere - and then one of them retired. I LOVED them. I've searched in vain for the lyrics to "Boys Will Be Boys" - there's someone I know would LOVE that sung at them! -
I thought I had their LP, cunningly entitled "Proper Little Madams" recorded in 1982, but it doesn't seem to have survived the departure of my ex-partner.
Can anyone help? Where are they now?
Girls, you were GREAT.

Do you mean this Leon Rosselson song? 'fraid I can't help about the group.

Frankie Armstrong recorded it on "And the Music Plays So Grand" (1978) -- LP, I don't think it was ever digitized. So much of Frankie's recordings are available only on LP.

I had clean forgotten it was a Rossellsong.
PLMs were based here in Derby. Cathy used to live 5 doors from me, but I haven't seen her in years.
They used to do a Robb Thompson song about people stinking out your home with cigarettes (dates it!), with the wonderful line "they wave their obscene cancer sticks around your house and when they've gone, for several days the putrid perfume lingers on......"

Thanks very much - of COURSE! Very topical at the moment.
