verse 1
They're out of sorts in sunderland
And terribly cross in kent
They're dull in hull
And the isle of mull
Is seething with discontent
They're nervous in northumberland
And devon is down the drain
They're filled with wrath
On the firth of forth
And sullen on salisbury plain
In dublin they're depressed
Lads
Maybe because they're celts
for drake is going west
Lads
And so is everyone else
Hurray-hurray-hurray!
Misery's here to stay
Refrain 1
There are bad times just around the corner
There are dark clouds hurtling through the sky
And it's no good whining
About a silver lining
for we know from experience that they won't roll by
With a scowl and a frown
We'll keep our peckers down
And prepare for depression and doom and dread
We're going to unpack our troubles from our old kit bag
And wait until we drop down dead
Verse 2
from portland bill to scarborough
They're querulous and subdued
And shropshire lads
Have behaved like cads
from berwick-on-tweed to bude
They're mad at market harborough
And livid at leigh-on-sea
In tunbridge wells
You can hear the yells
Of woe-begone bourgeoisie
We all get bitched about
Lads
Whoever our vote elects
We know we're up the spout
Lads
And that's what england expects
Hurray-hurray-hurray!
Trouble is on the way
Refrain 2
There are bad times just around the corner
The horizon's gloomy as can be
There are black birds over
The grayish cliffs of dover
And the rats are preparing to leave the bbc
We're an unhappy breed
And very bored indeed
When reminded of something that nelson said
While the press and the politicians nag nag nag
We'll wait until we drop down dead
Verse 3
from
