Little Boy Blues

(to another one of those typical blues rhythms!)

I want to sing about Keith, he's a real gent,
He was our president ...

chorus:
   And he puts Baby Bio in his wellies, 'cos he's so very small,
   Stands out in the rain, 'cos he wants to grow tall,
   He wants to outgrow them all, he's got those little boy blues!

Now Liz McKenny is a final year,
We thought she'd always be here ...

chorus:
   And she puts Baby Bio in her wellies, 'cos she's so very small,
   Stands out in the rain, 'cos she wants to grow tall,
   She wants to outgrow them all, she's got those little girl blues!

Steve Prior is a really fit guy,
He often gets 'High' ...

chorus:
   And he puts Baby Bio in his hiking boots, he's so very small,
   Stands out in the snow, 'cos he wants to grow tall,
   He wants to outgrow them all, he's got those little boy blues!

The smallest of all is young Judy Munroe*,
She wishes she could grow ...

chorus:
   And she puts Baby Bio in her wellies, 'cos she's so very small,
   Stands out in the rain, 'cos she wants to grow tall,
   She wants to outgrow them all, she's got those little girl blues!

Now Aref Al-Raqqad's got a real good tan,
He comes from Jordan ...

chorus:
   And he puts Baby Bio in his sandles, he's so very small,
   Stands out in the rain, 'cos he wants to grow tall,
   He wants to outgrow them all, he's got those little boy blues!

Now our friend Nick used to be smaller than that,
I know for a fact that ...

chorus:
   He put Baby Bio in his wellies, 'cos he was so very small,
   Stood out in the rain, 'cos he wanted to grow tall,
   And now he's outgrown them all, he's lost those little boy blues!
