Conversation with an Essex Man

The first thing you ask is; where do I live?
Followed up by: Oh! You must want to move.
I've got nothing to say, nothing to give
and, to you mate, I've got nothing to prove.

Then you have to enquire ; what do I do?
Presuming that I am of course employed.
If I wasn't, would it matter to you?
Would this conversation be null and void?

You needn't ask me where I'm from, oh no
let's face it; I look, and sound just like you.
But there the similarities end, so;
just accept my different point of view.

I've no desire to live at Leigh on Sea
I'm sure it's very nice. It's just not me!
