Songs

[edit]
  • Food, glorious food!
    Hot sausage and mustard!
    While we're in the mood
    Cold jelly and custard!
    Pease pudding and saveloys,
    what next, is the question?
    Rich gentlemen have it, boys:
    In-di-gestion!
  • In this life, one thing counts
    In the bank, large amounts
    I'm afraid these don't grow on trees,
    You've got to pick-a-pocket or two.
    You've got to pick-a-pocket or two, boys,
    You've got to pick-a-pocket or two.
  • Would you climb a hill? - Anything
    Wear a daffodil? - Anything
    Leave me all your will? - Anything
    Even fight my Bill? - What fisticuffs?!
  • As long as he needs me.
    Oh yes, he does need me.
    In spite of what you see,
    I'm sure that he needs me.
