They're out of sorts in Sunderland
|
And terribly cross in Kent
|
They're down in Hull
|
And the isle of Mall
|
Is seething with discontent
|
They're nervous in northumberland
|
And Devon is down the drain
|
They're filled with wrath on Firth of Forth
|
And sullen on Salisbury plain
|
In Dublin they're depressed lads
|
Maybe because they're Celts
|
For drake is hurrying West, lads
|
And so is everyone else
|
|
Hurray! Hurray! Hurray!
|
Misery is here to stay
|
There are bad times just around the corner
|
There are dark clouds hurtling through the sky
|
And it's no good whining
|
About a silver lining
|
For we know from experience they won't roll by
|
With a scowl and a frown we'll keep our peckers down
|
And prepare for depression and doom and dread
|
We're going to unpack our troubles from our old kit bag
|
And wait until we drop down dead
|
|
They're nervous in Nigeria
|
They're all going crazy in Crete
|
In Bucharest they're so depressed
|
They're frightend to cross the streets
|
In maine the melancholia
|
Is deeper than tongue can tell
|
In Monako all the croupiers know
|
They haven't a hope in hell
|
In far away Australia
|
Each wallaby is well aware
|
The world's a total failure
|
Without any time to spare
|
|
Hurray! Hurray! Hurray!
|
Suffering and dismay
|
There are bad times just around the corner
|
The horizon is gloomy as can be
|
There are black birds over
|
The greyish cliffs of Dover
|
And the rats are preparing to leave the BBC
|
We're unhappy breed and very bored indeed
|
When reminded of something that Nelson said
|
While the press and the politicians nag, nag, nag
|
We'll wait until we drop down dead
|
|
There are bad times just around the corner
|
And the outlook's absolutely vile
|
There are home fires smoking from Windermere to Woking
|
And we're not going to tighten our belt and
|
Smile Smile Smile
|
At the sound of shots
|
We'd just as soon as not
|
Get a hot water bottle and go to bed
|
We're going to unpack our troubles from our old kit bag
|
And wait until we drop down dead
|
I like your story
|
Land of Hope and Glory
|
Wait until we drop down dead
|
