When I Were A Lad…: Snapshots From A Time That Health & Safety Forgot

Product Information

Despite the fact that all recordings of the song appear to be by Irish artists, I have a feeling that it might have been written by Mike Harding. I'm pretty sure I've heard him sing it anyway.

The episodes in Series 1 delve into Liam's memories of virginity loss, his first fight, the best house party ever organised, and his marvellous outwitting of an entire teaching staff. "This is the New Labour, post-mining, aspirational heartland, meeting 50 Cent and Generation Y ennui, represented in a bourgeois radio format by a British comedian."

Thank you very much ,I've been searching for these lyrics ,for the Houghton Weavers version of the song , they remind me of when I was a lad in the 1940's This one is a parody of the Gilbert & Sullivan song. It was probably inspired in part by The Man in the Gray Flannel Suit, a popular novel in 1955, which was made into a film in 1956. Well as the Brother of the man who wrote the music and words to this song and produced an album of the same name of which it is the title song. This storytelling series comes from multiple Edinburgh Comedy Award nominee and misanthrope Liam Williams. It is a cinematic retelling of his teenage misadventures in the Yorkshire suburbs. When I was a child, I used to speak like a child, think like a child, reason like a child; when I became a man, I did away with childish things.

I saw Comedian tom O'Connor sing this at Butlins once, according to him the late actor Bill Owen of Compo fame wrote it. Anyone have the guitar chords to it?
