lyrics
Outside an office on Queen Square
You’ll see them disembarking
To use the cycle parking
As they come in for the day
They turn up in t-shirts
And Birkenstock sandals
But they’ve got suits to wear
If their clients are there
CHORUS
Here they come
la la la la la la
la la la la la la
The consultants
Here they come
la la la la la la
la la la la la la
Eunomia consultants
They analyse research reports
And waste data flow returns
Cos they’re all concerned
To give the right advice
Explain the benefits of kerbside sort
And why MRFs are dirty
Even when the client’s said
They’re going co-mingled instead
CHORUS
They pedal Bromptons very fast
And tap away on laptops
And take the odd snapshot
When they see the bins are out
You’ll find them down the depot
Looking awkward in hi-viz
To go and see the trash
Is alright
CHORUS
The consultants!
The consultants!
The consultants!
The consultants!
