Now I had an old uncle
was mean as can be
He said "When I die
you'll get nuffin' from me"
mustn't grumble
mustn't grumble
All he left me
was an old overcoat
But I found in the pocket
a fifty pound note
mustn't grumble
mustn't grumble
Now I am a
do it yourselfer
you see
It don't half make life easy
take it from me
mustn't grumble
mustn't grumble
If the wife wants
the grass cut
or a new kitchen shelf
Just do as I do
and say "do it yourself"
mustn't grumble
mustn't grumble
Mustn't grumble
don't worry 'bout
nuffin' my friend
Mustn't grumble
'cause all's well that's
well in the end
Mustn't grumble
you grumble and
you're on your own
Laugh and the world
laughs with yer
Cry and you'll cry all alone
Laugh and the world
laughs with yer
mustn't grumble
mustn't grumble
Now I came home
from work
there was firemen around
They said "we couldn't
save it your house
has burnt down"
mustn't grumble
mustn't grumble
I said "that's alright
don't worry mate
'Cause the bathroom
needed painting
it weren't half in a state"
mustn't grumble
mustn't grumble
I collect the football
pools money, yer see
And one week we won it
me work mates and me
mustn't grumble
mustn't grumble
Came home from
work early
feelin' pleased
with me self
Then I saw the coupon
still stuck on the shelf
mustn't grumble
mustn't grumble
Mustn't grumble
don't worry 'bout
nuffin' my friend
Mustn't grumble
'cause all's well that's
well in the end
Mustn't grumble
you grumble and
you're on your own
Laugh and the world
laughs with yer
Cry and you'll cry all alone
Laugh and the world
laughs with yer
mustn't grumble
mustn't grumble
Laugh and the world
laughs with yer
mustn't grumble
mustn't grumble
