lid of me granny’s bin lyrics
[verse]
as i was climbing into bed
my poor granny’s side
i looked out of the window
and the army had arrived
the house was soon surrounded
they battered the front door in
i knew they come to take away
the lid of me granny’s bin
[chorus]
and it was scream, bang, shout
raise an awful din
you’ve got to spread a warning
when the army, they come in
[verse]
well she opened up the windae
and she clambered down a spout
soon her bin was rattling
for to call the neighbors out
she then took out a whistle
and blew she away like h+ll
and soon we heard the echo
as the neighbors blew as well
[chorus]
and it was scream, bang, shout
raise an awful din
you’ve got to spread a warning
when the army, they come in
[verse]
a soldier came right up the stairs
his rifle in his hand
she kicked him with her b+tton boots
and along the hall she ran
then up and stepped another one
some medals for to win
but all he got right up the gob
was the lid of me granny’s bin
[chorus]
and it was scream, bang, shout
raise an awful din
you’ve got to spread a warning
when the army, they come in
[verse]
the music rose like thunder
as the bins and whistles played
the army soon retreated
they knew they’d overstayed
it wasn’t made of silver
it was only made of tin
but once again it saved the street
the lid of me granny’s bin
[chorus]
and it was scream, bang, shout
raise an awful din
you’ve got to spread a warning
when the army, they come in
[verse]
now war has had its weapons
since men began to fight
and everyone has different ways
to try and show their might
the army has tried everything
to cover up its sins
and now the plastic bullets failed
they’re trying plastic bins
[chorus]
and it was scream, bang, shout
raise an awful din
you’ve got to spread a warning
when the army, they come in
[verse]
go home kind friends and go to bed
sleep as best you can
but if trouble comes along
get out and lend a hand
to all you fair young ladies
if trouble does begin
get out into the backyard, love
and rattle away at your bin!
[chorus]
and it was scream, bang, shout
raise an awful din
you’ve got to spread a warning
when the army, they come in
and it was scream, bang, shout
raise an awful din
you’ve got to spread a warning
when the army, they come in
