Oh, British Sugar Bureau
When I told you what I, and I
And I wouldn't ask you to pretend that we were one
And still another time

Forget all the lies, forgive me the wounds
And all the world was used to love
And yes, we'd still be happy in another time
But so what?
So what?

So please send me icing and decorating sets
I enclose a cheque and postal order number
So what?
So what?
