Lyrics for Song: Get 'Em Out By Friday
Lyrics for Album: Live 1973-2007 [2009]
JOHN PEBBLE OF STYX ENTERPRISES
"Get 'em out by Friday!
You don't get paid till the last one's well on his way.
Get 'em out by Friday!
It's important that we keep to schedule, there must be no delay."
MARK HALL OF STYX ENTERPRISES (OTHERWISE KNOWN
AS "THE WINKLER")
"I represent a firm of gentlemen who recently purchased this
house and all the others in the road.
In the interest of humanity we've found a better place for you to
go-go-go-go-go."
MRS BARROW (a tenant)
"Oh no, this I can't believe,
Oh Mary, they're asking us to leave."
MR PEBBLE
"Get 'em out by Friday!
I've told you before's good many gone, if we let them stay.
And if it isn't easy,
You can squeeze a little grease and our troubles will soon run away."
MRS BARROW
"After all this time they ask us to leave,
And I told them we could pay double the rent.
I don't know why it seemed so funny,
Seeing ashow they'd take our money.
The winkler called again, he came here this morning,
With four houndred pounds and a photograph of the place that he has
found.
A block of flats with central heating.
I think we're gonna find it hard."
MR PEBBLE
"Now we've got them!
I've always said that cash cash cash can do anything well.
Work can be rewarding
When a flash of intuition is a gift that helps you excel-sell-sell-sell."
MR HALL
"Here we are in Harlow New Town, did you recognice your
block across the square, over there,
Sadly since last time we spoke, we've found we've had to raise
the rent again, just a bit."
MRS BARROW
"Oh no, this I can't believe
Oh Mary, and we agreed to leave."

18/9/2012 TV FLASH ON ALL DIAL-A-PROGRAM SERVICES
This is an announcement from Genetic Control:
"It is my sad duty to inform you of a 4ft restriction
on humanoid height."
EXTRACT FROM CONVERSATION OF JOE ORDINARY IN LOCAL
PUBORAMA
"I hear the directors of Genetic Control have been buying all the
properties that have recently been sold, taking risks oh so bold.
It is said now that people will be shorter in height, they can fit
twice as many in the same building site
(they say it's alright),
Beginning with the tenants of the town of Harlow,
In the interest of humanity they've been told they must go,
Told they must go-go-go-go."
SIR JOHN DE PEBBLE OF UNITED BLACKSPRINGS INTERNATIONAL
"I think they've reached a new deal
A dozen properties - we'll buy at five and sell at thirty-four,
Some are still inhabited,
It's time to send the winkler to see them, he'll have to work
some more."
MEMO FROM SATIN PETER OF ROCK DEVELOPMENTS LTD
Land in your hand you'll be happy on earth
Then invest in the Church for your heaven.
