paul weller – eton rifles (single version) lyrics
sup up your beer and collect your f-gs
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
h-llo, hurrah
what a nice day for the eton rifles
h-llo, hurrah
i hope rain stops play with the eton rifles
thought you were clever when you lit the fuse
tore down the house of commons in your brand new shoes
compose a revolutionary symphony
then went to bed with a charming young thing
h-llo, hurrah
cheers then mate, it’s the eton rifles
h-llo, hurrah
an extremist scr-pe with the 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
(naughty)
schoolboy
we came out of it, naturally the worst
beaten and bl–dy and i was sick down my shirt
we were no match for their untamed wit
though some of the lads said, they’ll be back next week
h-llo, hurrah
there’s a price to pay to the eton rifles
h-llo, hurrah
i’d prefer the plague to the eton rifles
h-llo, hurrah
there’s a price to pay to the eton rifles
h-llo, hurrah
i’d prefer the plague to the eton rifles
