The Eton Rifles (Demo Version)

The Eton Rifles - The Jam

Sup up your beer and collect your fags

Theres 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

Hello-hurrah-what a nice day-for the eton rifles

Eton rifles

Hello-hurrah-i hope rain stops play-with the eton rifles

Eton rifles

Eton rifles

Eton rifles

Thought you were smart 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

Hello-hurrah-cheers then mate-it's the eton rifles

Eton rifles

Hello-hurrah-an extremist scrape-with the eton rifles

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 naughty schoolboy

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 schoolboy

We came out of it naturally the worst

Beaten and bloody 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

Hello-hurrah-theres a price to pay-to the eton rifles

Eton rifles

Hello-hurrah-i prefer the plague-to the eton rifles

Eton rifles

Hello-hurrah-theres a price to pay-to the eton rifles

Eton rifles

Hello-hurrah-i prefer the plague-to the eton rifles
