Billericay dickie


(spoken)
good evening i'm from Essex
in case you couldn't tell
my given name is Dickie, I come from Billericay
and I'm doing very well

had a love affair with Nina
in the back of my Cortina
a seasoned up hyena could not have been more obscener
she took me to the cleaners
and other misdemeanours
but I got right up between her
rum and her Ribena

well, you ask Joyce and Vicki
if candy-floss is sticky
I'm not a blinking thicky
I'm Billericay Dickie
and i'm doing very well

I bought a lot of brandy
when I was courting Sandy
took eight to make her randy
and all I had was shandy
another thing with Sandy
what often came in handy
was passing her a 'Mandy'
she didn't half go bandy

so you ask Joyce and Vicki
if I ever took the mickey
I'm not a flipping thicky
I'm Billericay Dickie
and I'm doing very well

I'd rendezvous with Janet
quite near the Isle of Thanet
she looked more like a gannet
she wasn't half a prannet
her mother tried to ban it
her father helped me plan it
and when I captured Janet she bruised her pomegranet

so you ask Joyce and Vicki
if i ever shaped up tricky
I'm not a blooming thicky
I'm Billericay Dickie
and I'm doing very well

you should never hold a candle if you don't know where it's been
the jackpot is in the handle on a normal fruit machine

so you ask Joyce and Vicki
who's their favourite brickie
I'm not a common thicky
I'm Billericay Dickie
and I'm doing very well

I know a lovely old toe-rag obliging and noblesse
kindly, charming shag from Shoeburyness

my given name is Dickie
I come from Billericay
I thought you'd never guess

so you ask Joyce and Vicki
a pair of squeaky chickies
I'm not a flaming thicky I'm Billericay Dickie
and I'm doing very well

oh golly, oh gosh come and lie on the couch
with a nice bit of posh from Burnham-on-Crouch

my given name is Dickie, I come from Billericay
and I ain't a sloutch

so you ask Joyce and Vicki
about Billericay Dickie
I ain't an effin' thicky
you ask Joyce and Vicki
and I'm doing very well

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

Ian Dury and the Blockheads are a British musical group active between the 1970s and 1980s. Founded by Ian Dury, singer, musician, and poet, the band is known for its ska-punk music with influences of rockabilly and cabaret. Dury, born in Harrow in 1942, had a childhood marked by polio which caused permanent paralysis to his right leg. This event deeply influenced his artistic path, fueling his irony and his ability to tell stories from the perspective of those who are different. The Blockheads, with Chaz Jankel on piano and Mickey Gallagher on organ, accompanied Dury on a musical journey that covered social, political, and personal themes with a dark humor and great live energy. Among their most important albums are *New Boots and Panties*** (1977), *Do It Yourself* (1979) and *Laughter* (1980). The band's most famous songs include *Hit Me With Your Rhythm Stick*, *Reasons to Be Cheerful, Part 3* and *Wake Up and Make Love with Me*. Ian Dury died in 2000 from pancreatic cancer. His musical legacy continues to inspire artists and fans worldwide.
