The Ballad of the Insultana. By Mugwump the Malcontented pirate To: Blow the Man Down. (Trad.) Well I live in St.Helens not far from the sea To my way hey, tear the town down They emulate pirates that they want to be Give them some time to tear the town down They govern like brigands so casually To my way hey, tear the town down And with the new charter their hands will be free. Give them some time to tear the town down. All want to lure tourists to come to their lair To my way hey, tear the town down. But seeing the billboards the visitors glare. Give them some time to tear the town down. Now they want a new symbol, an old pirate ship To my way hey, tear the town down But most of the people just don't give a skip Give them some time to tear the town down. In buying Sultana they've shown their true hand To my way hey, tear the town down A piece of fake history for 200 grand Give them some time to tear the town down. It is our old down town they continue to trash To my way hey, tear the town down It would be such a sin to waste all that cash Give them some time to tear the town down. Well we see a city that wants to be know To my way hey, tear the town down If they strike it rich they may toss you a bone. Give them some time to tear Our town down. |
