Karaoké Dignity

There's a man I meet walkin' up our street
He's a worker for the council has been twenty years
And he takes no lip off nobody litter off the gutter
Puts it in a bag and never thinks to mutter
And he packs his lunch in a sunblest bag the children call him boggie
He never lets on but I know 'cos he once told me
He let me know a secret about the money in his kitty
He's gonna buy a dinghy gonna call her Dignity
And I'll sail her up the west coast through villages and towns
And I'll be on my holidays they'll be doing their rounds
They'll ask me how
I got her I'll say
I saved my money
They'll say isn't she pretty that ship called Dignity
And I'm telling this story in a faraway scene
Sipping down raki and reading Maynard Keynes
And I'm thinking about home and all that means
A place in the winter for Dignity
And I'll sail her up the west coast through villages and towns
I'll be on my holidays they'll be doing their rounds
They'll ask me how
I got her I'll say
I saved my money
They'll say isn't she pretty that ship called Dignity
Set it up, set it up, set it up set it up, set it up, set it up
Yeah, set it up again set it up again set it up again set it up again
Set it up, set it up, set it up set it up, set it up, set it up
Yeah, set it up again set it up again set it up again set it up again
And I'm thinking about home
And I'm thinking about faith
And I'm thinking about work
And I'm thinking how good it would be to be here some day
On a ship called Dignity a ship called Dignity
That ship
