Lyrics

Fuss And Commotion
words and music by Anthony Russell

I cried out in the darkness
Cold fear in my heart
Little stickmen coming to get me
Not a ghost of a chance from the start

All signs say I?m done for
Then a voice rings through
There there all this fuss and commotion?s
Just a nightmare but now I?m here with you

Nanny?s around
And all is right with the world
Nanny?s got it all worked out
The fuss and commotion can fold

My good friend?s a policeman
Davy Crockett that?s me
We?re both dressed up to the nines
And fighting to the death so it seems

All signs say he?s done for
Then a voice rings through
What on earth?s all this fuss and commotion?
Can?t I leave you for a moment or two?

Nanny?s around
And all is right with the world
Nanny?s got it all worked out
The fuss and commotion can fold

She bought me my first 45
A Lonnie Donegan tune
I never asked her the meaning of life
But should have done ?cause clearly she knew

It?s time to go away to boarding school
Not sure about that
I asked to go but at seven and a half
I might easily has misread the facts

All signs say I?m done for
Then a voice rings through
Hush now none of that fuss and commotion
No matter what I?ll always be there for you

Nanny?s around
And all is right with the world
Nanny?s got it all worked out
The fuss and commotion can fold
