A song about Alex moving from Exeter to a new job in Gloucester.

lyrics

Alex is going to work in Gloucester
Good customer relations he will foster
He's still quite young and a bit of a swot
And Exeter branch will miss him a lot



In the summer he plays cricket
When he drinks too much beer he's on a sticky wicket
Many pints of Doom Bar he has bought
Aston Villa is the team that he loves to support



Alex is going to work in Gloucester
Good customer relations he will foster
He's still quite young and a bit of a swot
And Exeter branch will miss him a lot


At work his desk is quite untidy
With paper everywhere by the time it's Friday
The cleaner would like to chuck it in the bin
Just look at the mess where does she begin


Goodbye Alex what will I do
My computer problems were solved by you


Alex is going to work in Gloucester
Good customer relations he will foster
He's still quite young and a bit of a swot
And now he’s been replaced by Scott
Now he’s been replaced by Scott
