Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Honey, honey
[Verse 2]
My, you did look dapper in your mother's old green scarf
With your famous Auntie Arthur's trousers on
You were slapped by that slapper
And how we all laughed
But she laughed the loudest
Only ninety-three
You could charm the bees knees off the bees
[Verse 3]
Cheeky you'd say and we all fell around
Rolling round the playground
Saucy you'd say and we all fell about
Rolling round the playground
[Verse 4]
In the ninety-four
We all sang
Skipping and dancing hand in hand
Yeah, it was all the boys together
And all the girls together
[Verse 5]
She's the last of the English roses
She's the last of the English roses
[Verse 6]
She knows her Rodney's from her Stanley's
And her Kappas from her Reeboks
And her tit from her tat
And Winston's from her Enok's
It's fine and take what I
Coming out coming alive
Round the Snooker table
You dance the Fruity-Tutti
[Verse 7]
She almost spilled her lager
Toasting girls of great beauty
But the closing moved by
Coming of age coming live
All the boys together
And all the girls together
[Verse 8]
She's the last of the English roses
She's the last of the English roses
Yeah, she's the last of the English roses
She's the last of, last of the English, English roses
