Housemartins - You Better Be Doubtful Lyrics
Tinker, you better place another betThe rich up in the castle haven't finished eating yetThey'll throw you a bone or a spat-out stoneBut knowing them that's all you'll getTailor, you better close another shopNo-one wants your quality, make do with what you've gotThey'll let you surviveThe'll let you get byBut knowing them, they'll let you rotYou better be doubtfulYou better bewareYou better not shout nowYou better not careTinker, you better buy another bootThose "Po***** Continental" are finally showing throughWe'll get you a pairFrom a second-hand fairThey'll only have 'a two'Sailor, you better sink a few more shipsAdmiral loony Nelson cannot find his game of riskWe'll lose a few livesA couple of tribesBut knowing him he'll like his lipsYou better be doubtfulYou better bewareYou better not shout nowYou better not careFrom Queen Wilkinds to Queen VictoriaWe've had a promising sideFrom King Callaghan to Bonny Prince FrancisWe've paid up and we've criedPrincess Gower and Princess FergusonWe've looked a hard nut to crackBut we're weak at the.........Back!
