I met with Napper Tandy and I shook him by the hand | |
He said hold me up for chrissake, for i can hardly stand | |
the most disgraceful journey on which i've ever been | |
the last time that i traveled on the boat train | |
i had a couple of drinks in town, a few more in the port | |
i puked up on the gangway but some kind folks helped me board | |
they sat me at a table, poured whiskey down my throat | |
sat me at a table and i lost my watch and coat | |
First we drank some whiskey | |
then we had some gin | |
then we had tequila i think that's what did me in | |
then we had some brandy and the women had a dance | |
the steward then announced that we could play the game of chance | |
we crowded round the table with our money in our hands | |
i landed on the other side without a penny in my pants | |
woke up in the toilet when we got to holyhead | |
the doors were all a-banging and i wished that i was dead | |
then we went through customs | |
a couple of credited thugs | |
first they looked for bombs and guns | |
then they looked for drugs | |
stuck a flashlight up my ass | |
told some Irish jokes | |
said "fuck off now paddy" | |
so i headed for the smoke | |
on the boat train | |
we got on board the train and then we had a drink or two | |
started playing poker but the booze ran out at crewe | |
some people started sleeping, others looked for duty free | |
some bastard started singing "little cottage by the lee" | |
he then sang "paper roses," "boolavogue," "eileen aru" | |
somebody started slagging off the Pakis and the Jews | |
found a bottle of whiskey | |
found a bottle of gin | |
i sat down in the corner and i read the daily news | |
first i drank the whiskey | |
then i drank the gin | |
i tried to make the toilet | |
but i broke my fucking shin | |
the next thing that i knew i was in london in the rain | |
staggering up the platform on the boat train |
