pogues - bottle of smoke (live) lyrics
thanks and praises
thanks to jesus
i bet on the bottle of smoke
i went to h-ll
and to the races
to bet on the bottle of smoke
the day being clear
the sky being bright
he came up on the left
like a streak of light
like a drunken f-ck
on a sat-rday night
up came the bottle of smoke
twenty f-cking five to one
me gambling days are done
i bet on a horse called the bottle of smoke
and my horse won
stewards inquiries
swift and fiery
i had the bottle of smoke
inquisitions and suppositions
i had the bottle of smoke
f-ck the stewards
a trip to lourdes
might give the old f-ckers
the power of sight
screaming springers and stoppers
and call out coppers
but the money still gleams in my hand like a light
bookies cursing
cars reversing
i had the bottle of smoke
gl-sses steaming
vessels bursting
i had the bottle of smoke
slip a fifty to the wife
and for each brat a crisp new five
to give me a break on a sat-rday night
when i had the bottle of smoke
priests and maidens
drunk as pagans
they had the bottle of smoke
sins forgiven and celebrations
they had the bottle of smoke
f-ck the yanks
and drink their wives
the moon is clear
the sky is bright
i’m happy as the horses sh-te
up came the bottle of smoke
