Some months ago I was browsing through a newspaper and amongst all the gloomy headlines shone a little splash ad for a Beatle tribute show in London...a song is born!
Enjoy the 'Tour"..
Guitar - C&T 1 twin flatpups
Drums - Roland TD-12 V-Drums
PLAY LOUD !
NOWADAYS I'M NOT QUITE LIKE THE MAN I WAS BACK THEN,
I GOT ONIONS ON ME BUNIONS AND CAN BARELY HOLD A PEN.
MY EYES THEY SQUINT TO SEE WHAT'S COMIN' SLOWER THAN A BIKE,
AT THE JOB CENTRE THEY JUST LOOK AT ME AN' SAY "TAKE A BLOODY HIKE !"
CHORUS -
BUT THERE'S HOPE!...NO REASON TO CRY,
IT'S ALL GONNA BE ALL RIGHT..
IF YOU LISTEN...I'LL TELL YOU WHY...
THE BEATLES ARE BACK!
THE BEATLES ARE BACK!
DON'T GIVE ME NO CRAP, PLEASE CUT ME SOME SLACK,
THE BEATLES ARE BACK!
THE BEATLES ARE BACK!
I GOT GREASE STAINS ON ME TROUSERS I GOT DOG TURD ON ME SHOES,
MY FINGERS STAINED FROM CHEAP FAGS AND I ONLY SING THE BLUES.
I DRIVE IN MY OLD BANGER ROUND AT TWENTY MILES AN HOUR,
I'M LIKE AN OLD MILK BOTTLE THAT'S BEEN LEFT AN' GONE ALL SOUR.
MY HOUSE LOOKS LIKE THE SET FROM PSYCHO IT'S REALLY IN A MESS,
MY WIFE KEEPS ON COMPLAININ' THAT SHE HASN'T GOT A DRESS.
THE DOG HE HOWLS ALL NIGHT BECAUSE HIS FLEAS HAVE ALL GOT FLEAS,
THE RAIN POURS THROUGH THE CEILING TILL THE WATER'S AT OUR KNEES.
CHORUS
THE ECONOMY IS SHRINKING AND THE FUTURE LOOKS SO BLEAK,
THE WEATHER'S TURNING NASTY NO ESCAPING FOR THE WEAK.
A HURRICANE IN HAITI AND A MURDER IN TIMES SQUARE,
THE NIGHTS ARE GETTING DARKER ONLY GO OUT IF YOU DARE !
CHORUS
From "Keep Calm and Play Blues".
