                                          Build

                       Clambering men in big bad boots
                       Dug up my den, dug up my roots
                       Treated us like plasticine town
                       They built us up and knocked us down

                       From Meccano to Legoland
                       Here they come with a brick in their hand
                       Men with heads filled up with sand
                       It's build

                       It's build a house where we can stay
                       Add a new bit everyday
                       It's build a road for us to cross
                       Build us lots and lots and lots and lots and lots

                       Whistling men in yellow vans
                       They can and drew us diagrams
                       Showed us how it all worked it out
                       And wrote it down in case of doubt

                       Slow, slow, quick, quick, quick
                       It's wall to wall and brick to brick
                       They work so fast it makes you sick
                       It's build

                       It's build a house where we can stay
                       Add a new bit everyday
                       It's build a road for us to cross
                       Build us lots and lots and lots and lots and lots

                       It's build

                       Down with sticks and up with bricks
                       In with boots and up with roots
                       It's in with suits and new recruits
                       It's build
