Then wear the gold hat, if that will move her;
If you can bounce high, bounce for her too,
Till she cry "Lover, gold-hatted, high-bouncing lover,
I must have you!"

I used to get that when I first moved to uni! Even now people sometimes just look at me and go "what?"
I didn't even think I had an accent until I moved out of Hull!
"I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel. Make us all feel wonderful. We'll never forget."
I swear I have a neutral accent. I'm from Essex and dont seem to speak like everyone else. Well, the chavs anyway.
I feel like that some of the time- especially when I was at home (North Herts) but at school in Cambridge. I seemed to be the only person aware that the letter "t" existed.
I get accused of being posh by some people at uni though. I have an ongoing thing with a black guy, who calls me cracker, limey etc. so I call him my homie. First time I did, he just burst into a fit of giggles, telling me posh girls shouldn't say homie...
Wake me up before I change again
Remind me the story that I won't get insane
Tell me why it's always the same
Explain me the reason why I'm so much in pain.
Hate mine though, mines *****. No-one can understand me down south, no joke.
It's not *****, just bizarre :P
Though it is true, normally having asked you to repeat yourself twice I feel embaressed that I don't get it and try to either shake it off, or just come up with some ridiculous answer.

There are times to stay put, and what you want will come to you.
But there are times to go out into the world and find such a thing for yourself.
I aint no abacus but you can count on me.
