BLACK DR MARTENS  (Challis/Harris/Harris/Gretch/Gold)

Boom diddy boom diddy Black Dr Martens, boom diddy boom diddy, size nine
Boom diddy boom diddy Black Dr Martens, boom diddy boom diddy, size nine
OOOHHH
Boom diddy boom diddy Black Dr Martens, boom diddy boom diddy, size nine
Boom diddy boom diddy Black Dr Martens, boom diddy boom diddy, size nine

I took my baby out to the cinema
We went to the back and we went too far
My baby screamed out in ecstasy
And they all turned round and looked at me SINGING

Boom diddy boom diddy Black Dr Martens, boom diddy boom diddy, size nine
Boom diddy boom diddy Black Dr Martens, boom diddy boom diddy, size nine

I took my baby home there was nobody there
I kissed he all over and stroked her hair
Just as I was getting somewhere
There was her father standing there  WEARING 

Boom diddy boom diddy Black Dr Martens, boom diddy boom diddy, size nine
Boom diddy boom diddy Black Dr Martens, boom diddy boom diddy, size nine
Boom diddy boom diddy Black Dr Martens, boom diddy boom diddy, size nine
Boom diddy boom diddy Black Dr Martens, boom diddy boom diddy, size nine

I went to the shoe shop  There was nobody there
I couldn’t reach the shelf so I stood on a chair
I desperately needed something to wear
But there was the manager standing there  HOLDING

Boom diddy boom diddy Black Dr Martens, boom diddy boom diddy, size nine
Boom diddy boom diddy Black Dr Martens, boom diddy boom diddy, size nine

I went to London, everyone’s there
I looked pretty norm al so I died my hair
I got on a tube and went to Sloane Square
A 1000 teds were waiting there SCREAMING

Boom diddy boom diddy Black Dr Martens, boom diddy boom diddy, size nine
Boom diddy boom diddy Black Dr Martens, boom diddy boom diddy, size nine
