Mary loves the Grouse
|
Hides the bottles round the house
|
She watches chatshows and the soaps
|
Broken-hearted but she copes
|
|
Michael's out of work
|
Feels he's sinking in the murk
|
He's unshaven and a mess
|
Fnds it hard some days to dress
|
|
Stevie smashed the delf
|
Cos he can't express himself
|
He's consumed by rage
|
Like his father at his age
|
|
Rita's little child
|
Has a lovely little smile
|
But this means nothing to her father
|
Because he's never even seen her.
|
|
And we sing, sing all our cares away
|
And we live to fight another day
|
|
Joey's off the gear
|
He's been clean for half a year
|
He gets bored out of his mind
|
But he's trying to toe the line
|
|
Maggie's in a chair
|
'Twas joyriding put her there
|
She puts the kettle on the boil
|
And she's always got a smile
|
|
And we sing, sing all our cares away
|
And we live to fight another day
|
|
And we sing, sing all our cares away
|
And we live to love another day
|
|
We grow strong from it all,
|
We grow strong, or we fall
|
|
We grow strong from it all,
|
We grow strong, or we fall
|
|
And we sing all our cares away
|
