New town, it's not so old. Stuart St Lloyd's made a Scottish stronghold. Back doors were open
00:06
in every household. Streets strewn with iron filing, so not much gold, because Corby is nothing
00:12
but unique. With a boating lake devoid of boats, out at a weekend you don't wear coats, so one
00:18
great night out on a five pound note, held championships for eating porridge oats, because
00:25
Corby is nothing but unique. A big square cube is a centrepiece, getting wrecked at Bips was a
00:32
release. Shut down fortnight was spent in Greece. Death from the plug mill, you need an earpiece,
00:39
because Corby is nothing but unique. From sloopy jeans to Commodore, Weetabix, Avon, RS and more,
00:47
some chopped and sliced to make coleslaw. Pipeline under the ocean, it's so offshore,
00:54
because Corby is nothing but unique. Watch foundry men and steel men, Occupation Road was home for
01:01
both and then were moved to the Triangle. They're moved again, in a town where ladies call each
01:08
other hen, because Corby is nothing but unique. People shop in Tesco and in PJs and nightdress.
01:15
Bits of the eccy are still a bit of a mess, but it's hailed as friendly, so I must confess,
01:22
we have no links whatever to a trouser press, because Corby is nothing but unique. A crater on
01:29
Mars credits the town. The streets around the centre, named after the crown. On the crest of
01:35
Rocky Hill, watch the sun go down. Every Tory MP is regarded a clown, because Corby is nothing but
01:42
unique. Toxic town, proclaimed Netflix, but it's supportive and helpful when in a fix. Corby's
01:50
identities on politics, settled with a double from the optics, because Corby is nothing but unique.
01:58
There are many a woods to walk straight through, as there's best-selling drink is iron brew.
02:04
North Londonshire awaits by choo-choo. Why not come and visit us do, because Corby is really not that
02:12
bleak, but pointless if you want antique. Come and take a look, please take a peek, because Corby is
02:19
nothing but unique. Thank you.
