From today, dialing 999 won't get you the emergency services — and that's not the only thing that's changing. Nicer ambulances, faster response times and better-looking drivers mean they're not just the emergency services — they're your emergency services. So, remember the number 0118 999 881 999 119 725 … 3.

I think the phone number in the song is better written in cadence to the music

I always loved the how the line "rise up lights" when pronounced with an American or English accent is 'razor blades' in an Australian accent.

That's great! I overheard a Scottish couple talking about how Japanese "my sore toe" sounds. With their accents it was a lot like masato, which does seem to be a japanese name.
