This lyric rewrite reflects aspects of a particular member of our beloved club. I do not think it will take long to recognize the song. I would encourage that as soon as you recognize the song: you play the song while continuing to read the lyrics, to gain full enjoyment.

I like to call this particular rewrite:
Joel doesn't like sharing biscuits.

I'm on my way, from warm duvet to dressing gown today.
Yawnyawn, yawnyawn, yawnyawn, yawnyawn
I'm on my way, from dressing gown to kitchen fridge today.
Yum yum,yum yum ,yum yum, yum yuuuum
I'm on my way to cheesecake and a coffee,
And years from now, I'll still eat this for breakfast.
And yes you're right, I should include the biscuits.
Now only if, Becky would let me have them.

I've searched this place. I've searched this place inside out todayyyy.
Wherewhere, wherewhere, wherewhere, wherewhere
I've searched this place. I've searched this place upside down todayyy.
WHEREWHEREWHEREWHEREWHEREWHEREWHEREWHERE.

Nowhere in sight, I've should've torn the house down.
Instead I sit, and eat my oats with a frown.
I'd like it if, she'd stop eating my biscuits.
And then that way, I wouldn't have to split them.

And now that I don't want to share these things.
I would have Will Smith sing, she's stealing my biscuits from meeeeeee.

I'll do my best, I'll do my best to hide them far from her.
Yep, yep, yep, yep, yep, yep, yep, yep
I'll do my best, I'll do my best to hide them far from her.
Mwahahahahahahahaha
To keep my limbs, from wasting all away here.
I'll hide them close, a storage unit near here.
To keep me fed, the present and the future.
It's worth the cost; secrets and expenditure.

And now that I don't want to share these things.
I would have Will Smith sing; come and share a biscuit with meeeeeeee.

I'm on my way, from kitchen fridge to stuffy car today.
Coughcoughcoughcoughcoughcoughcoughcough
I'm on my way, from stuffy car to secret store today.
Yipyipyipyipyipyipyipyipeeeeeeeee
I'm on my way, to what I want in this world.
And years from now, you may make it to this world.
But until then, this secret stays with only me.
A hidden store, it's full of biscuits and glee.

I'm on my way, to what I want in this world.
And years from now, you may make it to this world.
But until then, this secret stays with only me.
A hidden store, it's full of biscuits and glee.

I'm on my way,
I've got me tea,
To get biccies,
I'm so happy,
They call to me,
And now I'm here,
OMG THIS IS BISCUIT HEAVEN

[Fabian]

Haha. The proclaimers. Great stuff.

I've been keen to have a crack at this, but my beloved "social pressure" just doesn't have enough lyrics to go at. So I picked one of my favourite tunes that always makes me smile, and then tried to empathise with that half of the club with whom I have so very little in common...the faffers!

Thank you to my beautiful wife for her assistance.

And you may find yourself
Standing in an empty hut
And you may find yourself
In your underpants and t-shirt
And you may find yourself
Cooking a fry up with a large pot of tea
And you may find yourself still searching for your boots
With the hut all to yourself
And you may ask yourself, well
Where have they all gone?

Letting the minutes go by, I’ll put the kettle on again
Letting the minutes go by, we’ve got all day what’s the rush
Back to the hut again after the rest have gone
Once in a lifetime, I’ll not leave my lunch behind

And you may ask yourself
How do I lock this?
And you may ask yourself
Where did they say to leave the key?
And you may tell yourself
These are not my waterproof pants!
And you may tell yourself
This is not my tuna sandwich!

Letting the minutes go by, I’ll put the kettle on again
Letting the minutes go by, we’ve got all day what’s the rush
Back to the hut again after the rest have gone
Once in a lifetime, I’ll not leave my lunch behind

Where has the A-team gone?
Where has the A-team gone?
Where has the A-team gone?
Where has the A-team gone?
Where has the A-team gone?
Where has the A-team gone?
Where has the A-team gone?
Where has the A-team gone?

Letting the minutes go by, I’ll put the kettle on again
Letting the minutes go by, we’ve got all day what’s the rush
Back to the hut again after the rest have gone
Once in a lifetime, I’ll not leave my lunch behind

You may ask yourself
Which way did they go from here?
You may ask yourself
Where does that pathway go to?
And you may ask yourself
Is it right? Is it left?
And you may say to yourself
“Oh shit! Where have they gone?”

Letting the minutes go by, I’ll put the kettle on again
Letting the minutes go by, we’ve got all day what’s the rush
Back to the hut again after the rest have gone ahead
Behind the bottles and cans, there’s my snickers multi-pack

Letting the minutes go by, I’ll put the kettle on again
Letting the minutes go by, we’ve got all day what’s the rush
Back to the hut again after the rest have gone
Once in a lifetime, I’ll not leave my lunch behind

Where has the A-team gone?
Where has the A-team gone?
Where has the A-team gone?
There’s no need to rush
Pub isn’t open yet
It’s only eleven!
Where has the A-team gone?
Where has the A-team gone?
Where has the A-team gone?
Where has the A-team gone?
Where has the A-team gone?
…
