[edit] Extracts from The lyrics to John Kettley (Is A Weatherman)

OOOOhhhhhhhh

Ayrton Senna's got the voice of a tenor / Peter Snow sings very low / Mark Barano is a soprano / and John Kettley, John Kettley, John Kettley / is a weatherman

John Kettley is a weatherman / a weatherman / a weatherman / John Kettley is a weatherman / and so is Michael Fish
