lyrics

(instrumental)

She complained twice in the first year, which was fair
Then in November she left a tin on the step
No note, no name, we knew exactly whose it was
(whose it was)
That tin has been refilled every month for six years

She has never said she likes it (likes it)
She has never once said the word music

Mrs Alderman
(Alderman)
Feeds four idiots she has never complimented
Mrs Alderman
That's the loudest anybody's cheered for us

We played her a song through the fence in July
She listened all the way through with her hands on her hips
Said "the second one was better" and went inside
(went inside)
Best review we ever got and we've had actual reviews

When we sign something, if we sign something,
the first thank you is going on the step in a tin.
She'll pretend she doesn't know what it's for.

Mrs Alderman
(Alderman)
Feeds four idiots she has never complimented
Mrs Alderman
That's the loudest anybody's cheered for us

(Alderman...)
