Twydales Lament

Вступление

(intro F Eb F)

Indicate then you stupid bastard how was I supposed to know

That you intended to go left, I'm not a mind reader

You shall be cast away into the fiery pit and in the fiery pit there are

E (instr F)

Eternal sleeping policemen.

I saw a young professional couple playing Poohsticks on a Cotswold bridge

I watched them walk along the banks of the Windrush eating jasmine ice cream

Before heading north to Warwick Arts Centre and Marianne Faithfull, splendid.

I picked up all the elastic bands dropped by the postman on my driveway

And took them up to the pub on a Thursday evening

As that's where he likes to go for the quiz

He believes he is needed for the music round

His friends obviously humour him

Anyway, I place myself at a nearby table

And whenever he tries to light up a cigarette

I fire it out of his mouth with one of the elastic bands

Which he finds most annoying, most annoying.

(instr F, F Bb F, Dm C F (x2)
