The Maccabees - Good Old Bill lyrics
[The Maccabees - Good Old Bill lyrics]
Spearmint Rhino was taking our money
When Gran was robbed of her own life honey
The driverless hornet last post
On the trumpet his blind
Crippled crumpet don't like it but lump it
The engine, it won't start without him
The engine, it won't start without
So I went down to Sherry's
Mod suit's and Paul Weller
All pork pies and drainpipes to
Wear in all weather
All of us shed a tear thinking of yesteryear
Raise whiskey, raise beer
The old boy is not here
The engine, it won't start without him
The engine, it won't start without
The engine, it won't start without him
The engine, it won't start without
So he's left us done up to the nines
With satin for lining and a coating of pine
And the engine is broke
I can't fix and I've lost
All the coals and we're running quite low
The engine is broke
I can't fix and I've lost
All the coals and we're running quite low
When Gran was robbed of her own life honey
The driverless hornet last post
On the trumpet his blind
Crippled crumpet don't like it but lump it
The engine, it won't start without him
The engine, it won't start without
So I went down to Sherry's
Mod suit's and Paul Weller
All pork pies and drainpipes to
Wear in all weather
All of us shed a tear thinking of yesteryear
Raise whiskey, raise beer
The old boy is not here
The engine, it won't start without him
The engine, it won't start without
The engine, it won't start without him
The engine, it won't start without
So he's left us done up to the nines
With satin for lining and a coating of pine
And the engine is broke
I can't fix and I've lost
All the coals and we're running quite low
The engine is broke
I can't fix and I've lost
All the coals and we're running quite low
