《Grandad》歌词

[00:00:09] If you come around to mourn for Grandad

[00:00:12] Don't dress up in black cause

[00:00:14] Although me Grandad's dead and buried odds on he'll be back yes

[00:00:18] Although they stuffed him in a coffin and read out the will and

[00:00:22] Although he's six foot deep in darkness he'll never lie still

[00:00:26] He's made of sterner stuff he's not dead enough

[00:00:33] Angels saints and seraphim

[00:00:36] Please please will you try to keep an eye

[00:00:42] On him

[00:00:44] On his ninetieth birthday Grandad went down for a drink now

[00:00:48] Me Grandad is a rabid dipso with a throat like a sink he

[00:00:52] Drank himself toward the skyline and his friends to the floor just

[00:00:56] To prove how fit he was for boozing for ninety years more

[00:01:00] Your pearly gates he'll climb when it's opening time

[00:01:06] Angels saints and seraphim

[00:01:10] You'll you’ll find it hard to keep a guard

[00:01:15] On him

[00:01:17] They brought him home upon a handcart with his legs in the air he

[00:01:21] Was singing Rule Britannia backwards in his underwear he

[00:01:24] Challenged all the county police force to a fight right away then

[00:01:28] He offered to put the Ladies' Union in the family way

[00:01:32] Your crystal domes will shake when he makes his break

[00:01:38] Angels saints and seraphim

[00:01:42] Please please don't expect that much respect

[00:01:47] From him

[00:01:49] The doctor lifted up an eyelid and pronounced him gone but

[00:01:53] To judge from Grandad's finger signals the doctor was wrong they

[00:01:56] Dressed him in his Sunday night shirt they combed out his hair but

[00:02:01] They couldn't get my Grandad's boots off he'd need them up there

[00:02:05] Your silken wings he'll shed He will paint Paradise red

[00:02:11] Angels saints and seraphim

[00:02:15] He'll give you the slip so get a grip

[00:02:20] On him

[00:02:22] Even at the solemn moment he wouldn't behave for

[00:02:26] I heard him whistling in his coffin on his way to the grave he

[00:02:30] Took off toward the New Jerusalem with his pinch of salt I

[00:02:34] Distinctly heard him flatulating in his marble vault

[00:02:37] Your candles will be dimmed when he gets the wind

[00:02:44] Angels saints and seraphim

[00:02:48] Although he's old although he's cold

[00:02:55] Keep a tight hold on him
