  • Songwriters: Felix Major Buxton, Melissa Samantha John, Simon Anthony Ratcliffe

Uh, uh, uh, uh, look at him, look at him
That geezer, that geezer, what geezer? That geezer
You see him, he's so dusty, he's a M I N G E R
Minger, minger, minger, minger, minger, minger, minger

Run 4 cover, run 4 cover, run 4 cover
When you see dem minging boys you better
Run 4 cover, run 4 cover, run 4 cover
When you see dem minging boys you better

Slut, slut, get outta my way
Get back to the back of the queue
'Cos you're butters and blow
Can't have my number, so leave me alone

'Cos you're wasted, wasted, wasted
Need a face lift
Pushing them, pushing them mans to the side
Pushing them, pushing them mans to the side

Run 4 cover, run 4 cover, run 4 cover
When you see dem minging boys you better
Run 4 cover, run 4 cover, run 4 cover
When you see dem minging boys you better

So you think you may have a chance one day
But no way, no way
'Cos you're not my type and I don't like you, right
So go away, just go away

Wow, just seen me a guy
That's so perfect, knows how to work it
He's got that charm, he took my arm
Whispered in my ear things I long to hear

Uh, uh, me must be tipsy
How could me think that boy was sexy?
Turns out, turns out he was the minger
I was so shocked, nearly turned into 'Thriller'

In such a rage, in such a rage
Me had to tell that minger to move from me face
But he never listen, still onna me case
Onna me case, in de place

Run 4 cover, run 4 cover, run 4 cover
When you see dem minging boys you better
Run 4 cover, run 4 cover, run 4 cover
When you see dem minging boys you better

Follow, follow, follow, everywhere that me went
Though me try hide, boy, pick up me scent
Run 4 cover, a so me try
But this boy was too quick, too, too sly

Appearing, shouting in my earring
Nearly lost my hearing
From his breath, oh, my, oh, my
It nearly choked me to death

His breath 'cos it was so stank
And I cannot deny it, had to tell him it stank
I'm sorry Frank but we will never be
So can you please stop pestering me?

When you see dem minging boys you better
Run 4 cover, run 4 cover, run 4 cover
When you see dem minging boys you better
Run 4 cover, run 4 cover, run 4 cover
When you see dem minging boys you better

Galling galloing long about your business
'Cos we don't wanna know 'cos you're ugly like so
Galling galloing long about your business
'Cos we don't wanna know 'cos you're ugly like so

You're too galling galloing long
You're too galling galloing long
You're too galling galloing long about your business
'Cos we don't wanna know 'cos you're ugly like so

This is for all you mans that think you're buff
Well, you're not buff, you're just rough
