Man At Work', never mind, no never mind EPISODE THREE Oh, a day trip to the sea, never mind, no never mind Makes you feel so young and free, never mind, no never mind Every Jack and every Jill will eat and drink his fill And if Selwyn pays the bill, never mind, no never mind When you're working for a cause, never mind, no never mind It is hard to win applause, never mind, no never mind It's a very bumpy ride, you will labour far and wide And if God's not on your side, no never mind You can often win the day, never mind, no never mind Maybe not the shortest way, never mind, no never mind Selwyn's critics must rescind, he just set to work and grinned Now he's blowing in the wind, never mind, no never mind EPISODE FOUR Selwyn Froggitt's back again, never mind, no never mind In the sunshine and the rain, never mind, no never mind If you're looking for a friend on whom you can depend You'll find Selwyn is the end, but never mind, no never mind Selwyn Froggitt's on the move, never mind, no never mind Selwyn Froggitt's in the groove, never mind, no never mind When he's riding on his luck, heading straight into the muck Well, the best thing is to duck, never mind, no never mind Selwyn's got a heart of gold, never mind, no never mind If he makes your blood run cold, never mind, no never mind Like in all the pantomimes, when the hour of midnight chimes He is still behind the times, never mind, no never mind EPISODE FIVE England need not be afraid, never mind, no never mind Private Froggitt's on parade, never mind, no never mind He believes a first time whack is the best form of attack If he's leading from the back, never mind, no never mind Private Froggitt will not shirk, never mind, no never mind >From the spirit of Dunkirk, never mind, no never mind See him answer Britain's call when it's backs against the wall If there's no one there at all, never mind, no never mind He's maintaining his retreat, never mind, no never mind When Private Froggitt's on the beat, never mind, no never mind He's a most courageous man, he will leap as best he can >From the fire to frying pan, never mind, no never mind EPISODE SIX If you're very much in love, never mind, no never mind Cooing like a turtle dove, never mind, no never mind When your heart is light as air, it's as well to be aware There's a somebody who cares, never mind, no never mind There is nought as queer as folk, never mind, no never mind Being worried is no joke, never mind, no never mind When there's something on your mind, you will very often find It is cruel to be kind, never mind, no never mind When the mystery's amiss, never mind, no never mind Now and then it ends in bliss, never mind, no never mind True love sometimes finds a way, whatever people say Keep your family out the way and never mind, no never mind EPISODE SEVEN Oh, a funny thing is fate, never mind, no never mind You can't tell what lies in wait, never mind, no never mind Keep the left hand in your sight, they will get you with the right >From the very greatest height, never mind, no never mind Now, the true love of a brother, never mind, no never mind Is as bad as any other, never mind, no never mind He doesn't really seek to shove you up the creek So say blessed are the weak, never mind The great day has arrived, never mind, no never mind And true love has survived, never mind, no never mind Fixing this and fixing that, you've forgotten where it's at So just wear the biggest hat and never mind, no never mind Men can go their different ways, never mind, no never mind But there's always one who stays, never mind, no never mind But you'll find there's no disgrace to stay put in the same place With a smile upon your face, never mind, no never mind (Transcribed by Mel Priddle - January 2016)
