[Pre-Chorus]
Auntie Kathleen, retired maths queen
Never thought that there was anything wrong
And yet heart-ached Anthony
Would slap me on the back and say

[Chorus]
Take it on the chin
Take a look within
Won't you begin right over?
Take it on the chin, take it on the chin
Take it on the chin
Take a look within

[Pre-Chorus]
Auntie Kathleen, retired maths queen

[Bridge]
Fine, honest

Fine, honestly, I'm fine
Fine, honest (Honestly, I'm fine)

Take it on the chin, take it on the chin
Take it on the chin
Take a look within
Won't you begin right over?
Take it on the chin, take it on the chin
Take it
