Purple Fleeces

Sat in Tesco’s Car Park waiting for my wife to return to me

Having just popped in to buy some bread some milk

Some cheese some eggs and something for our tea

I looked around to see what I could see

And I saw men in a car parked next to me there were

Chorus A:

Two men in purple fleeces drinking cider

Two men in purple fleeces smoking cigarettes

Two men in purple fleeces drinking cider

Two men in purple fleeces smoking cigarettes

I was surprised to see two men

In matching fleeces in my vicinity

But what surprised me more another man

Returned from store then there were three

I was suspicious of these men in purple fleece

But not enough to warrant calling the police for

Chorus B:

Three men in purple fleeces drinking cider

Three men in purple fleeces smoking cigarettes

Three men in purple fleeces drinking cider

Three men in purple fleeces smoking cigarettes

And as I start to care

What these three men are doing there

A label reading Tescos on the fleece I see

So it is clear that they are working here

But in what capacity?

Some kind of sub contract is implied

One where a purple fleece is supplied for

Chorus B

My wife comes back we drive away but

I think about those men all day what did they do

Had they been there to fix the lights

Build a display of ladies tights or unblock the loo

And should they really have been drinking and smoking there Especially in Tescos branded thermal wear those
