Eton Rifles (Live At The Brighton Centre)

Sup up your beer and collect your fags There's a row going on down near Slough Get out your mat and pray to the West I'll get out mine and pray for myself Thought you were smart when you took them on But you didn't take a peep in their artillery room All that rugby puts hairs on your chest What chance have you got against a tie and a crest Hello Hurray what a nice day for the Eton Rifles, Eton Rifles Hello Hurray I hope rain stops play for the Eton Rifles, Eton Rifles Thought you were clever when you lit the fuse Tore down the house of commons in your brand new shoes Composed a revolutionary symphony Then went to bed with a charming young thing Hello Hurray cheers then, mate It's the Eton Rifles, Eton Rifles Hello Hurray an extremist scrape with the Eton Rifles, Eton Rifles What a catalyst you turned out to be Loaded the guns, then you run off home for your tea Left me standing like a guilty schoolboy What a catalyst you turned out to be Loaded the guns, then you run off home for your tea Left me standing like a naughty schoolboy We came out of it naturally the worst Beaten and bloody, and I was sick down my shirt We were no match for their untamed wit Though some of the lads said they'd be back next week Hello Hurray it's the price to pay to the Eton Rifles, Eton Rifles Hello Hurray I'd prefer the plague to the Eton Rifles, Eton Rifles Hello Hurray it's the price to pay to the Eton Rifles, Eton Rifles Hello Hurray I'd prefer the plague to the Eton Rifles, Eton Rifles Eton Rifles, Eton Rifles Eton Rifles, Eton Rifles
