Bold As Brass Lyrics

Make a move, get off your spine
Shake your leg, tow the line
Mum's the word, the doctor said
Try your hand at this instead

Standing fast as bold as brass
Holding on until the last
Call the tune and play it all day long
There's a song that's just begun
Strikes a chord in everyone
It's the decent thing to do - your best

Risk you take - when on the make
Is falling down - upon the ground
That's the breaks - a bone or two
Bring's it home - it's up to you

Standing fast as bold as brass
Holding on until the last
Call the tune and play it all day long
There's a song that's just begun
Strikes a chord in everyone
It's the decent thing to do - your best

They're gonna move my spine?

Make a move, get off your spine
Shake your leg, tow the line
Mum's the word, the doctor said
Try your hand at this instead

Standing fast as bold as brass
Holding on until the last
Call the tune and play it all day long
There's a song that's just begun
Strikes a chord in everyone
It's the decent thing to do - your best
la-de-da-da-da-de-dah...

I have no clue about what this song is about, but it makes me happy and dance like a berk.

Lots of leg shaking, maybe carrying on even though you look like a berk and doing your own gubbins.

I love this.

It's a jaunty little number used by doctors to cheer up victims of severe spinal injury.
