Yard Act - Fixer Upper Lyrics

Hello there! I got a letter in the post
Addressed to the previous owner
I don't know how to pronounce their name
I don't think that they were from 'round here, you know
Well, I just moved into the area, yeah
That big old thing over the road
It's a fixer upper though, it's a fixer upper so
We're gonna put pound shop Terracotta frogs everywhere
Wrap solar power fairy lights 'round the gutter
I got a Prosecco o'clock poster half price in IKEA
It goes nicely with the existential fear that I feel
When I accidentally wonder
What I'm really doing here
And how long I've got left before I'm six feet under

I can't believe I'm a two homeowner
(Finally!) Can't believe I'm a two homeowner
I've finally got a nice little drive to call my own
Off street parking for the Rover
It's a fixer upper though
Yeah, no, not the Rover, the Rover's golden
I'm talking about that big old thing over the road
Yeah, that big old thing over the road
We're gonna knock through the kitchen wall though
Even though it's grade two Tudor architecture
We're gonna absolutely ruin it
All alright? We can't stand old shite

It's a fixer upper, woo
It's a fixer upper
It's a fixer upper, uh
It's a fixer upper

Anyway, this letter
I'll just post it back 'return to sender'
Unless you know him, I think
I think he's called Mr. J. Konopinski
Oh no wait, that's not an M that's a D
Dr. J. Konopinski, do you know him?
Sounds a bit Russian to me
Oh! Polish, I see
And he had a PhD did he? What in?
Probably one of those pointless media degrees, not for me
University of life ya see, I got thick skin
School of hard knocks
Gonna knock through that wall on Tuesday
In case you or the wife were gonna be in

It's a fixer upper, ah
It's a fixer upper
It's a fixer upper, yeah
It's a fixer upper

Alright mate, sorry about the commotion yesterday
The bloody builders are refusing to finish the job until I pay 'em
But I told 'em, no one pulls a fast one on Graham
I'm Graham by the way, don't know if I mentioned
I told 'em, I'm not made of money, you're having a laugh
Two homes and a Rover, comes from hard graft
I'm not minted, I earned it
It's not some funny voodoo business
I didn't walk on gilded splinters
To make the dent I did in under a year
I earnt it, in case you're wondering
As for the builders
Yeah, they're Polish
I'm not bothered about that like
But where you come from, says a lot about a man
And I'm not from 'round here, but I am

Also they won't take cash in hand
What's with that?
Maybe they wouldn't need the money so bloody fast
If they weren't willingly giving it all to the tax man
You take what you can get where I'm from
And I'm not from 'round here, but I am
I'm Graham by the way
(Hey Graham)
I'm Graham
I'm Graham
