My Bacon Roll

| | x8 I never got the elbow Just telling you Before you go Only telling you Just so you know      I never got the elbow I slung it in Had it up to here I just pulled the pin Went and had a beer I used to love a bit of folding Just for getting by A wad of cash Now that?s out of date   And so am I As pie and mash      S?cuse me   S?cuse me      Have you got my roll? My roll?   My bacon roll?      The time they took us bowling What was that about? I thought what a joke I just went out   And had a smoke      Then the white water rafting Just some know-it-all With the new regime There to show us all   How to build a team   He says what do you think we?re doing?   I said don?t ask me I?ve no idea They all laughed at that   That was pretty funny actually   S?cuse me   S?cuse me      Have you got my roll? My roll?   My bacon roll? Have you got my roll? My roll?                  ?   My bacon roll? I could order you a toastie             ? Just like that one there Or the same in plain white bread   When you?re dealing with a toastie What do you prefer   Brown or red? | | | | | | | x2 | | I never got the elbow Just telling you Before you go Only telling you   Just so you know | | Fade Out

La chanson évoque un mélange d'ironie et de nostalgie à propos de la vie quotidienne et des relations. Le narrateur exprime une insatisfaction vis-à-vis de son existence, se remémorant des moments passés tout en demandant où est passée sa petite douceur, un sandwich au bacon. Il met en lumière des situations sociales, comme des sorties entre amis ou des activités d'entreprise, qui semblent futiles ou déconnectées de ce qu'il ressent vraiment. Dans ce climat de légèreté, il y a aussi une certaine mélancolie liée au temps qui passe et aux changements dans sa vie. Le narrateur se sent à l'écart, comme si les choses dont il se souciait jadis n'avaient plus de valeur aujourd'hui.
