"Thar she blows...."
|
Let me tell you the story of a poor boy
Who was sent far away from his home To fight for his king and his country And also the old folks back home So they put him in a Highland division Sent him off to a far foreign land Where the flies swarm around in their thousands And there's nothing to see but the sands In a battle that started next morning Under an Arabian sun I remember that poor Scouser Tommy Who was shot by an old Nazi gun As he lay on the battle field dying dying dying With the blood gushing out of his head (of his head) As he lay on the battle field dying dying dying These were the last words he said... Oh... I am a Liverpudlian I come from the Spion Kop I like to sing, I like to shout I go there quite a lot (every week) We support the team that's dressed in Red A team that we all know A team that we call Liverpool And to glory we will go We've won the League, we've won the Cup We've been to Europe too We played the Toffees for a laugh And we left them feeling blue - Five Nil! One two One two three One two three four Five nil! Rush scored one Rush scored two Rush scored three And Rush scored four! Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na http://www.pelicanparts.com/support/smileys/pint1.gif |
Or as Kipling said,
"When you are wounded and left on Afghanistan's plains And the women come out to cut up what remains, Just roll on your rifle and blow out your brains And go to your God like a soldier" |
I think I'm sophisticated ‘cause I'm living my life
like a good homo sapien But all around me everybodys multiplying and they're walking round like flies man So I'm no better than the animals sitting in the cages in the zoo man Cause compared to the flowers and the birds and the trees I am an apeman. I think I'm so educated and I'm so civilized 'cause I'm a strict vegetarian But with the over-population and inflation and starvation and the crazy politicians I don't feel safe in this world no more, I don't want to die in a nuclear war. I want to sail away to a distant shore and make like an apeman. I'm an apeman, I'm an ape, apeman, oh I'm an apeman I'm a King Kong man, I'm a voodo man, oh I'm an apeman Cause compared to the sun that sits in the sky, Compared to the clouds as they roll by, Compared to the bugs and the spiders and flies I am an apeman. In man's evolution he's created the city and the motor traffic rumble. But give me half a chance and I'd be taking off my clothes and living in the jungle. Cause the only time that I feel at ease Is swinging up and down in the coconut trees. Oh what a life of luxury to be like an apeman. I'm an apeman, I'm an ape, apeman, oh I'm an apeman I'm a King Kong man, I'm a voodo man, oh I'm an apeman I look out the window but I can't see the sky, The air pollution is a-f*cking up my eyes, I want to get out of this city alive and make like an apeman. Oh come on and love me, be my apeman girl And we'll be so happy in my apeman world. I'm an apeman, I'm an ape, apeman, oh I'm an apeman I'm a King Kong man, I'm a voodo man, oh I'm an apeman I'll be your Tarzan, you'll be my Jane, I'll keep you warm and you'll keep me sane, We'll sit in the trees and eat bananas all day, just like an apeman. I'm an apeman, I'm an ape, apeman, oh I'm an apeman I'm a King Kong man, I'm a voodo man, oh I'm an apeman I don't feel safe in this world no more, I don't want to die in a nuclear war. I want to sail away to a distant shore and make like an apeman. |
INVICTUS
Out of the night that covers me, Black as the pit from pole to pole, I thank whatever gods may be, For my unconquerable soul. In the fell clutch of circumstance I have not winced nor cried aloud; Under the bludgeonings of chance My head is bloody but unbow’d. Beyond this place of wrath and tears Looms but the Horror of the Shade And yet the menace of the years Finds and shall find me unafraid. It matters not how straight the gate, How charged with punishments the scroll - I am the Master of my fate I am the Captain of my Soul. William Ernest Henley |
Dreamed I was an Eskimo
Frozen wind began to blow Under my boots and around my toes Frost that bit the ground below It was a 100 degrees below zero (ooh) And my mama cried And my mama cried Nanook a NoNo Nanook a NoNo Don't be a naughty Eskimo. |
Under a wide and starry sky
Dig my grave and let me lie Glad did I live and gladly die And I lay me down with a will This be the verse you grave for me Here he lies where he longed to be Home is the sailor home from the sea And the hunter, home from the hill. |
"Shes been lookin like a queen in a sailor's dream
And she don't always say what she really means." |
