It's pouring down in Blackpool, dark is the sand.
A famous face is missing from the Theatre Grand.
The wind is howling all the lights swing and sway.
How we miss our Doddy on such a miserable day!

The sea is angry in Blackpool, no warm embrace.
Only Ken Dodd today could brighten up the place!
The shops are a bit deserted, trade is looking slow.
Top deck on open top buses only the brave will go!

Just a dose of Doddy humour would make it right.
As Doddy could make the most darkest day bright!
Today in Blackpool my walk was quiet along the pier.
Only a Doddy show right now would return my cheer!
