Intro
(Spoken):
Good evening, I'm from Essex;
In case you couldn't tell,
My given name is Dickie, I come from Billericay,
And I'm doing very well.
Verse 1
Had a love affair with Nina, in the back of my Cor-tina,
A seasoned up hyena, could not be more ob-scene-a.
She took me to the cleaners, and other misde-meanours,
But I got right up between her, Rum and her Ri-bena.
Chorus 1
/maj /maj
Oh, you ask Joyce and Vicky,
If candy-floss is sticky,
/maj /maj
I'm not a blinking thicky, I'm Billericay Dickie,
And I'm doin', very well.
Verse 2
I bought a lot of brandy, when I was courting Sandy,
Took eight to make her randy, and all I had was shandy.
A-nother thing with Sandy, what often came in handy,
Was passing her a 'Mandy'; she didn't half go bandy.
Chorus 2
/maj /maj
So, you ask Joyce and Vicky,
If I ever took the mickey.
/maj /maj
I'm not a flipping thicky, I'm Billericay Dickie,
And I'm doin', very well.
Verse 3
I'd rendezvous with Janet, quite near the Isle of Thanet,
She looked more like a gannet; she wasn't half a prannet.
Her mother tried to ban it; her father helped me plan it,
And when I captured Janet; she bruised her pome-granate.
Chorus 3
/maj /maj
Oh, you ask Joyce and Vicki,
If I ever shaped up tricky,
/maj /maj
I'm not a blooming thicky; I'm Billericay Dickie,
And I'm doin', very well.
Bridge 1
You should never, hold a candle,
If you don't know where it's been.
The jackpot, is in the handle,
On a normal fruit ma-chine.
Chorus 4

So, you ask Joyce and Vicki,
/maj
Who's their favourite brickie.

I'm not a common thicky, I'm Billericay Dickie,
And I'm doin', very well.

I know a lovely old toe-rag, o-bliging and no-blesse,
Kindly, charming shag, from Shoeburyness.
/maj /maj
My given name is Dickie, I come from Billericay,
And I'm doin', very well.
Chorus 5
/maj /maj
So, you ask Joyce and Vicki;
A pair of squeaky chickies.
/maj /maj
I'm not a flaming thicky, I'm Billericay Dickie,
I thought, you'd never guess.
Chorus 6
/maj /maj
Oh golly, oh gosh; come and lie on the couch,
With a nice bit of posh, from Burnham-on-Crouch.
/maj /maj
My given name is Dickie; I come from Bille-ricay,
And I ain't, a slouch.
Chorus 7

About Billericay Dickie.

I'm doing, very well.
