Dan the Plan - Alan Hull

What went wrong with your plan man, was it too good to be true

No-one here could understand why, disappointing it fell through

With one hand on the stirrup, and one hand in the stew

No one knows that better than you

What went wrong with your city, the Brazilia of the North

Isn’t it a pity, that no one knew it’s worth

But the Civic Centre shines like money in your hand

Let’s raise another glass to Dan the Plan

Chorus:

Oh Dan, you’re a terrible man

Can’t you see what you’ve done?

you’ve spoiled all the fun

Oh Dan Dan… you killed me old man, you turned this house, into a caravan

You know it used to be mine, even the Fog on the Tyne

Now it’s all snow and rain, am I wrong to complain?

Am I wrong to complain?

What went wrong with your plan man, did you never realise?

Surely we could see that you had to subsidise to survive

But the law for once was on our side, and behind them bars you’ll stew

No one knows that better than you
