Manchester - Beautiful South[00:00:00]

From Northenden to Partington it's rain[00:00:13]

From Altrincham to Chadderton it's rain[00:00:19]

From Moss Side to Swinton hardly Spain[00:00:26]

It's a picture postcard of wish they never came[00:00:32]

And whilst that deckchair[00:00:38]

In the garden it makes no sense[00:00:40]

It doesn't spoil the view or cause offence[00:00:45]

Those Floridas Bavarias and Kents[00:00:51]

Make gentlemen wear shorts[00:00:57]

But don't make gents[00:00:59]

So convertible stay garage-bound[00:01:03]

Save after-sun for later[00:01:07]

If rain makes Britain great[00:01:09]

Then Manchester is greater[00:01:12]

As you dry your clothes once again[00:01:16]

Upon the radiator[00:01:19]

What makes Britain great[00:01:22]

Makes Manchester yet greater[00:01:25]

From Cheetham Hill to[00:01:41]

Wythenshawe it's rain[00:01:43]

Gorton Salford Sale pretty much the same[00:01:47]

As I'm caught up without my jacket once again[00:01:53]

The raindrops on my face[00:02:00]

Play a sweet refrain[00:02:02]

And as winter turns reluctantly to spring[00:02:06]

For the clouds above the[00:02:12]

City there's one last fling[00:02:14]

Swallows build their nests [00:02:19]

Chaffinch sing[00:02:21]

And the sun strolls into[00:02:25]

Town like long lost king[00:02:26]

So convertible stay garage bound[00:02:30]

Save after sun for later[00:02:34]

If rain makes Britain great[00:02:37]

Then Manchester is greater[00:02:40]

As you dry your clothes once again[00:02:43]

Upon the radiator[00:02:47]

What makes Britain great[00:02:50]

Makes Manchester yet greater[00:02:53]

And the mood of this whole[00:02:56]

Sodden place is melancholy[00:02:58]

Like the sun came out to play [00:03:02]

Shone through the clouds[00:03:04]

But dropped its lolly[00:03:06]

And everyone looks so disappointed [00:03:08]

So so sorry[00:03:12]

Like the rain blew into town [00:03:14]

Kidnapped the sun[00:03:17]

And stole its brolly[00:03:18]

So convertible stay garage bound[00:03:26]

Save after sun for later[00:03:30]

If rain makes Britain great[00:03:33]

Then Manchester is greater[00:03:36]

As you dry your clothes once again[00:03:39]

Upon the radiator[00:03:42]

What makes Britain great[00:03:46]

Makes Manchester yet greater[00:03:48]
