Trumpton Riots — текст песни (Half Man Half Biscuit)

Ow!



Oh! Oh! Oh!

{?



Unemployments rising

In the Chigley end of town.

And it`s speading like pneumonia;

Doesn`t look like going down.

There`s trouble at the fire station;

Someone`s had the sack.

And the lads are going to launch a scheme

To get rid of Captain Black.



Tell PC McGarry

To get himself a mate.

And arm themselves with C. S. Gas

They`re gonna be out late.

We`ve had calm conformers in since 1966.

And now subversions in the air

In the shape of flying bricks!



Chorus:

Someone get a message through

To Captain Snort

That they better start assembling

The boys from the fort.

Keep Mrs. Honeyman right out of sight,

`Cause there`s gonna be riot

Down in Trumpton Tonight.



All this aristocracy

Has really got to stop.

We`ll overthrow the surgery

And kidnap Doctor Mop

And Chicley Militant Socialists

Will storm the market square

And make plans to assasinate

Our autocratic mayor!



Windy Militant rages past

With Corn grinders to war

With windmill sails and bombs with nails

They smash the town hall door.

But Snorty and the boys arrive

With one big erstwhile (?) crew

Whereupon they bring about

A military coup.
