Clevor Trever

Ian Dury And The Blockheads

Just cos I ain't never 'ad, no,

Nothing worth having

Never ever, never ever

You ain't got no call not to think

I wouldn't fall

Into thinking that

I ain't too clever

And it ain't not having

One thing nor another

Neither, either is it anything, whatever

And it's not not knowing that

There ain't nothing showing

And I answer to the name

Of Trever, however



Just cos I ain't never said, no,

Nothing worth saying

Never ever, never ever, never ever

Things 'ave got read into what I never sad,

Till me mouth becomes me 'ead

Which ain't not all that clever

And it's not not saying

One thing nor another

Neither, either is it anything

I haven't said, whatever

And it ain't not proving

That me mind ain't moving

And I answer to the name

Of Trever, however



Knock me down with a feather

Clever Trevor

Widebrows wonder whether

Clever Trevor's clever

Either have they got

Nor neither haven't not

Got no right to make a clot

Out of Trevor



Why should I feel bad

About something I ain't 'ad

Such stupidness is mad

Cos nothing underfoot

Comes to nothing less to add

To a load of old toot

And I ain't half not half

Cos there's nowhere to put it

Even if I 'ad I'm a bit of a Jack the Lad



Knock me down with a feather

Clever Trevor

Widebrows wonder whether

Clever Trevor's clever

Either have they got

Nor neither haven't not

Got no right to make a clot

Out of Trevor



Also, it takes much longer

To get up north, the slow way
