lyrics

Rare Old Time

Morning broke and I awoke,
Sunlight streaming through my window
Chasing those sweet dreams out from my head
With a brew and a smoke and on with me coat
It`s off to run that race again
There must be something else to do instead
All the clocks go slow til the whistle blows
That homebound train is coming for me
The booze and the T.V. help to pass the time
Ah but I don`t mind walking the line
The weekend`s nearer all the time
Those two short days of freedom will soon be mine.

CHORUS
Did we have a time ?
We had a rare old time!
All of us just feeling fine
Could not find a greater state of mind
Oh did we have a time ?
We had a rare old time !
Dancing, Laughing, Drinking wine
Could not be more happy if we tried

Good Friday comes round every week
It`s off to chase those thrills I seek
It`s Party Night in every single bar
The week`s been a shitty one but here comes a pretty one
Driftin` across the smokey room
Shining out just like a midnight star
Well we wanna get it on but the band`s coming on
It`s time to dance and sing along
Shake away those cares and strives of ours
So we jump to the left and we swing to the right
Sing and dance for half the night
Then we`ll all sit round and have another jar

CHORUS

Saturday comes and we wanna have fun
We`d better make an early start
Before we check the match down on the park
Win or lose we`ll be lighting the fuse, charging up our energies
To drive us through the night when it gets dark
So we go from pub to pub
Til there`s no more left so we hit a club
Drinking like it`s going out of style
So the night rolls on and on
‘til the first bright light of morning comes
At last we get our heads down for a while

CHORUS

Sunday never starts til noon
And sometimes even that`s too soon
To wipe the bleary cobwebs from my eyes
But my head`s still here and as it starts to clear
And memory comes flooding back
I didn`t really do all that did I
Well I don`t care what people think
Tonight I`m gonna do the same again
There`s no point ever doing things by halves
So it all goes round and round
Not standing up for falling down
Basically just getting nowhere fast

CHORUS
