Saturday Night, Alright?

Bacardi & Coke, Will that do you?
I’ll have a pint, and a chaser too
And I’ll drink to my health, What a wonderful thrill

I do need the loo, It’s just there to the right
There’s no loo roll in here, and I’ve had a shite
But I’ll drink to your health, What a wonderful thrill

The drinks starting to flow, Aunt Betty wants a pie
She’ll tell you of the places, and people that’s gone by
There’s the neds shaking hands, and the chavs are there too
Aunt Betty’s watching Who’s with who

The singer does try.. To put on a show
He’ll learn one day To grab the cash and go
And I drink to our health What a blunderful world

Standing outside while I’m smoking my fag
There’s young Gale from No.22, and her red handbag
And I drink to her health what a cute little bum

The mothers and the daughters, spewing up in the street
A group of young lads looking for something to eat
And I drink to my health What a blunderful world

Saturday night’s nearly over, start heading for home
Two young lads shout and swear into their mobile phone
And I drink to their health what a silly old world

The taxi queue is too long, I think that we’ll just walk
I hear police sirens in the distance it’s no longer a shock
And I think to myself Is this a beautiful world?
