There was one in the gang who had Scalextric
And because of that he thought he was better than you
Every day after school youâ€d go round there to play it
But it always took about fifteen billion hours to set the track up
And even when you did the thing never seemed to work
It was a dodgy transformer again and again
A dodgy transformer again and again
It was a dodgy transformer again and again
A dodgy transformer that cost three pound ten
So heâ€d send his doting mother up the stairs with the stepladders
To get the Subbuteo out of the loft
He had all the accessories required for that big match atmosphere
The crowd and the dugout and the floodlights too
Youâ€d always get palmed off with a headless centre forward
And a goalkeeper with no arms and a face like his
And heâ€d managed to get hold of a Dukla Prague away kit
‘Cos his uncle owned a sports shop and heâ€d kept it to one side
And after only five minutes youâ€d be down to ten men
‘Cos heâ€d sent off your right back for taking the base from under his left winger
Each and every goal a hotly disputed penalty
So youâ€d smash up the floodlights and the match was abandoned
And the dog would bark and youâ€d be banned from his house
And your travelling army of synthetic supporters
Would be taken away from you and thrown in the bin
Now heâ€s working in a job with a future
He hands me my Giro every two weeks
And me Iâ€m on the lookout for a proper transformer
Er...
