Ni-Ni-ni-ni-ni, friends of Nigel…
nije, nije, nije, nije, nije friends with Nigel…
Born in Yorkshire ’63,
Brothers John and Simon in the family.
Chess on rainy nights,
Cricket in the summer light—
Young Nigel always thinking differently.
Off to Newcastle Poly,
Maths books mixed with glorious folly.
Bullwhippers in the bar,
Parties stretching far—
A legend in the making, definately.
’Cause everyone makes a friend of Nigel,
Everyone makes a friend of him.
Clever, witty, and bright,
Turns the darkest day delightful—
That’s why everyone makes a friend of Nigel.
Blankety Blank on the TV screen,
Les Dawson grinning at the scene.
Rosies bar was loud,
The Toon a roaring crowd—
Nigel shining on the small-town dream.
Edinburgh changed his life,
Scottish Widows introduced his wife.
Janice by his side,
Three children in their stride—
Ben, Matt, Hannah growing up just right.
’Cause everyone makes a friend of Nigel,
Everyone likes to befriend him.
Wherever Nigel goes,
Every friendship grows insightful—
That’s why everyone makes a friend of Nigel.
Cycling down the Langford lanes,
Hitchin Nomads in his veins.
Winters spent in France with ease,
Sydney Christmas in the summer breeze.
’Cause everyone makes a friend of Nigel,
A popular comedian they just love him.
If the world feels strange or wild,
He will make the moment bright—
That’s why everyone makes
A friend of Nigel…
