[Verse 1]
Here we go, here we go, here we go again
Dirty knickers, pop music, vodka and gin
Your knees are sore, you must've been in the wars
There's something to celebrate in our lives and here's where it begins

[Chorus]
Oh, well, see how we've grown
One gets born every minute
You're never, never alone
'Cause one gets born every minute of the day

[Verse 2]
Dozy Krauts and cosmopolitan tarts
Sleep together if hungover where on the Seine
Oh, here we go, here we go, here we go again
Dirty knickers, pop music, vodka, beer and gin

[Chorus]
Oh, well, see how we've grown
One gets born every minute
You're never, never alone
'Cause one gets born every minute of the day

[Instrumental break]

[Chorus]
Oh, well, see how we've grown
One gets born every minute
You're never, never alone
'Cause one gets born every minute of the day

Blur

British rock group Blur formed in 1988 and began life as a fairly unsuccessful shoegaze/madchester outfit, but the band quickly developed into becoming one of the leaders of the massive 1990s Britpop scene.

Their rivalry with contemporaries Oasis culminated in one of the most famous chart battles in British history – one which Blur won when “Country House” outsold Oasis’s “Roll With It” by 50,000 copies, giving Blur their first #1 single in the process.

Following this, the group embarked on a new musical direction, deliberately heading away from their trademark Britpop sound and instead taking influences from American alternative rock, a sound which earned them new fans in the US and gave them their second UK #1: “Beetlebum” in 1997.
