LEE: This is in fact the tragic story of a group of kids innocently playing a game of hide-and-seek. Willie experiments with solvents on some barren wasteland.

Sadly there is no happy ending.
The atmosphere and claustrophobia of some Madness songs is just genius. This is a really sad song and true story about someone stuck in a fridge.
One of the best songs ever written about getting stuck In a fridge
I have every Madness release on vinyl and this truly is their best album. By far actually.
The ending sax solo is mournful.
this lp was so under rated pure class
Very underrated album..class melodic tunes.
This album was a great help in my late teens ❤
I’m 54 and still go back to madness for a Saturday night take away 🇮🇪🕶🎤🎷🎹🥁🎸🎤🏁🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺
what a band
Scouring through the wasteland
With an urge to take
Anything that comes into view
Only 10 more puffs to teatime
I’ve found eating so time consuming
Willie, oh Willie, she cried
It’s time for tea 🍵
Willie, where in Hell has he gone
It’s time for tea 🫖
South of the wasteland at your DIY
The inconsiderate rings has till
Offering plans of easy credit
Claims he’ll cause a killing in the school 🏫 half term
Willie, oh Willie, she cried
It’s time for tea 🫖
Willie, where in Hell have you gone
It’s time for tea 🫖
And welly well well well what have I found here
A hiding place made by Frigidaire
I think 🤔 I’ll try it and give my mates a scare
They’ll all be searching neither here nor there
Willie, oh Willie, we cry 😢
It’s time for tea 🫖
Oh Willie, where in Hell have you gone
It’s time for tea 🫖
Long depress of autumn breeze
Sucking on the rubber ✏️ back teeth 🦷
Plays in the hand 🤚 of the hardware man 👨
Who selfishly “I don’t care”
Great album.
Brilliant band!!
From the moment, i like tea...
One of the only songs that actually sits in my silly high 'range'
Sorry, is this song about drugs? Would love to see some explanation.
Its about a kid getting stuck in a fridge and dying
@@whysnakes5231 But he sniffed some glue before it, right?
@@HowItsEvenPossible idk maybe. It does say some stuff about “ten more puffs to tea time” but I never really made the association with drugs
