Avast! They're leaving town two by two, |
|
As the rain pours down and we're all soaked through |
|
And as they march away, two by two, |
|
It's like we need an ark for the rest of us |
|
So I'll cut my hair short |
|
And I'll make a flag from an old black dress that I'd have worn |
|
If it hadn't rained so much that the |
|
Seven hills became seven seas |
|
And I'll sail my house from Broomhill to Walkley |
|
Pretty Polly is a pigeon, she's got a gammy leg and she'll eat anything |
|
I've got an eye patch with a hole in cos I don't need to navigate by stars - I use the road signs and the Arts Tower |
|
Still the rains come |
|
So I'll cut my hair short |
|
And I'll make a flag from an old black dress that I'd have worn |
|
If it hadn't rained so much that the |
|
Seven hills became seven seas |
|
And I'll sail my house from Crookes to Don Valley |
|
You can be my cabin boy and I can be your long lost pal |
|
I can call you Eddie, and Eddie when you call me you can call me Captain |
|
So I'll cut my hair short |
|
And I'll make a flag from an old black dress that I'd have worn |
|
If it hadn't rained so much that the |
|
Seven hills became seven seas |
|
And I'll sail my house from Fulwood to High Green |
