    I work in Burnham Market. Somehow I will try to rig up a loudhailer on my car and play this loudly as I drive through... Wonderful!

    I'm not so sure this song could possibly be anymore ridiculous. I'm in stitches over here!

    I'm Tim - I’m also Tim - and this old bugger is Giles
    (Hello!)
    We’re meeting up with Harry, three more Timmys and Miles
    (Good-oh!)
    But how to spot each other when the crowd is so thick?
    (Uh-oh)
    Don’t you worry, Timbo, there’s a very old trick
    We’re wearing red trousers so we’re not hard to spot
    We’ve all got red trousers and we wear them a lot
    We’re wearing red trousers as perhaps we have said
    From belt-hooks down to turn-ups we are pillarbox red
    Another gin and tonic please for each of the Tims
    (Hooray)
    A Jägerbomb for Harry and a jug full of Pimms
    (I say)
    Then let's flit up to Twickers where the totty will swoon
    (Hey hey)
    At our lower limbs all slathered in a sea of maroon
    We’re wearing red trousers and we’re out on the lash
    We’ve all got red trousers also plenty of cash
    And in our red trousers we will knock them all dead
    With self-confidence as total as our trousers are red
    Henley, Ascot, Lords, The Oval
    Tim’s Dad’s place outside Yeovil
    Still in our red trousers, you can see 'em for miles
    We love our red trousers, they’re the last word in style
    And in our red trousers we’ll head back to South Ken
    ‘Til next weekend the boatrace and red trousers again!
    Red trousers
    Ooooooh!
    Red trousers
    Ooooooh!
    Red trousers
    Oooo-ooh!
    Red trousers
    Trousers that are reeeeeeeeeeed!

      Thank-you for the transcript 👏 (Brilliant! as Arthur on Cabin Pressure would say 😉)

    This one's unusually devoid of irony. Like this could just be a normal lad's song, but just a tiny bit weirder.

    Ah. Memories of Richmond upon Thames, Clifton and that bit of Durham just by the University.

      I saw him live in Richmond, and it's apparently one of the first places where there have actually been people in red trousers.

      It's an original composition as are most of the songs on the show. The composer is Susannah Pearse.

      The thought of John Finnemore singing in key is very amusing....
