We went along Victoria Road (1969)

Words by David Appleton, John Lloyd and Tom Anderson to the tune of We went along a little bit further?


We went along Victoria Road and nothing could we find
We came across an oak tree, and that we left behind
The Englishman said, "It's an oak tree",
The Welshman he said, "nay",
Ed said, "It's a linear graph, but the branches are up the wrong way.

CHORUS: Well, look at that now: well, look at that now
Titty fah lah fah lah fa lay, titty fah lah fa lay.

We went along a bit further, and nothing could we find
We reached the University, and that we left behind
The Yankee said, "It's a college",
The Welshman he said, "nay",
Ewan said, "I'm the Chancellor, or I will be any day.

We went along a bit further, and nothing could we find
We came across the R.V.I. and that we left behind
The Englishman said "It's the R.V.I.",
The American he said "nay"
The Welshman said "Thank God for that - There's another one on the way"
