Just want to tell 'bout Martin Cause nobody I know's got a brother like him As kids we could never be parted The neighbours all knew us as the terible twins At school some kids where always looks for a fight And Martin never wanted a fuss Ol' Big Mouth Brown thought he's push us around Being three year older than us So I smash him in the teeth with a cloakroom stool Got six of the best and suspended from school But it was worth with a brother like Martin (Martin) It was worth it with a brother like him We used to nick motors for a joy ride 'Till we rammed a Black Mariah in this XJ 6 To give my brother time to get clear I had to punch a few policemen before I was nicked Got borstal for taking and driving away And beating up the boys in blue But Martin never missed a single visiting day Hitched from Clapham to Crewe With all me racing mags and the little bits of news Smuggling in ciggies and a little bit of booze No one ever had a brother like Martin No one ever had a brother like him Look, people get the wrong impression with Martin I know he didn't mix much but he's no snob The weekend I got out of remand home He got Uncle Ruby to find me this job And back at my Nan's he'd repainted my room And bought me a brand new carpet There was all me old records and books on a shelf And a secondhand telly from the market You can get a bit hard when you've been inside But I hugged the old bastard and I almost cried Cos no-one ever had a brother like Martin No-one ever had a brother like him (Cos no-one ever had a brother like Martin No-one ever had a brother like him)
