Ian Dury - Clevor Trever (Demo) Lyrics

Just 'cos I ain't never had
No, nothing worth having, never ever, never ever
You ain't got no call, not to think of what I'm falling to
Thinking that I ain't too clever

And it ain't not having one thing nor not another either
Neither is it anything, whatever
And it's not not knowing that there ain't nothing showing
And I answer to the name of Trevor, however

Just 'cos I ain't never said
No, nothing worth saying, never ever, never, never ever
Things have got read into what I never said
Till me mouth becomes me head which ain't not all that clever

And it's not, not saying one thing nor not another either
Neither is it anything I haven't said whatever
And it ain't not proving that my mind ain't moving
And I answer to the name of Trevor, however

Knock me down with a feather clever Trevor
Wide brows wonder whether clever Trevor's clever
Either have they got, nor neither haven't not
Got no right to make a clot out of Trevor

Why should I feel bad about something I ain't had
Such stupidness is mad
'Cos nothing underfoot comes to nothing less to add
To a load of old toot and I ain't half not half glad
'Cos there's nowhere to put it even if I had
I'm a bit of a Jack the Lad

Knock me down with a feather clever Trevor
Wide brows wonder whether clever Trevor's clever
Either have they got, nor neither haven't not
Got no right to make a clot out of Trevor

Also, it takes much longer to get up North the slow way
