LYRICS:
Now I've got a cousin called Kevin
He's sure to go to heaven
Always spotless clean and neat
As smooth as you’ll get ‘em
He's got a fur lined sheepskin jacket
My ma said they cost a packet
But she won't even let me explain
That me and Kevin we’re just not the same
Oh my perfect cousin
What I like to do he doesn't
He's his family's pride and joy
His mother’s little golden boy
He's gotta a grade in economics
Maths - physics and bionics!
He thinks that I'm a cabbage
'Cause I hate university challenge
Even at the age of ten
Smart boy Kevin was a smart boy then
He always beat me at Subbuteo
'Cause he flicked to kick
And I didn't know
Oh my perfect cousin
What I like to do he doesn't
He's his family's pride and joy
His mother’s little golden boy
His mother bought him a synthesizer
Got the Human League into advise her
Now he's making lots of noise
Playing along with the art school boys
Girls try to attract his attention
But what a shame it's in vain total rejection
He will never be left on the shelf
‘Cos Kevin he's in love with himself
Oh my perfect cousin
What I like to do he doesn't
He's his family's pride and joy
His mother’s little golden boy

Sadly Underrated band. All their song are masterpieces
Underrated....???? One of the most popular 'punk' bands ever...!!!
@@lockhimup8328 Are you crazy ?
@@azevbn326 Dunno...What's it like..?
We were spoilt for great songs by great bands back then, so bands like the Undertones were appreciated, yet fringe. The cultural desert that has developed since then has made us appreciate them more. It's not nostalgia, the gulf is real.
Agree and fergal Sharkey underrated
Takes me back to being 15. I had two perfect cousins. One lived next door to Simms on Creggan St. They both grew up to be lovely and quite perfect.
Those were the days! Hope you enjoyed
Absolute masterpiece and Power Pop jewel !
Heard this on Greatest Hits Radio recently and the main chorus is an absolute earworm.
Brilliant video! I always loved that single cover.
Perfect song
I love the Undertones!
I love this song!
I love this video!
Criminally under appreciated in America!
Woooo. Glad you love it as much as we do
Masterpiece!
LOL, I remember the song like it was just yesterday but I can't mind the video.... nice.
Thanks!!!!! Great!!!!
Thanks a million for this. Singing and dancing along with the whole family cheered us up lots. My perfect morning actually! ❤️
Hey Mark! So glad you like the video :) Have a great weekend
Brilliant
Tight cut😎👊🏾.
Why does this video only have a few thousand views
It´s funny the Human League ironic reference, anyway, I love both bands.
In retrospect they are all now part of the same milieu, but at the time they were world's apart. I was with the scruffy, guitar playing tribe, not the floppy designer hair, synth side. Doesn't matter which side, just glad I was a teen then, and not now.

Hey- thanks for blocking my UNLISTED video entry for a dissertation conference from viewing! Despite it only having one view when you did it. Now judges cannot see my entry and the deadline has passed. Thanks a lot for your greediness!
Those Subbuteo games are pretty intense
40 years ago some guy told me they were irritating when I mentioned I liked them.
Takes me back 40 years loved them happy days
Wednesday v United?
No, Huddersfield Town vs Stoke City
