A semi fictional account of the courtship
and subsequent proposal of marriage
between Mr P.Amesbury & Miss P McCrae
lyrics
The Last Bus Home
We’ll miss the last bus home
And let the last train go on alone
Let the late taxis dwindle, and their queues grow long
It’s time to sing our very last song
So drink up ya bastards it's time to go home
You've all had yer fun so it off you must roam
Dead drunk or sober, boys, it's all the same
Till tomorrow comes calling.
We’ll take the long walk home
Through streets all a glitter to your front door
Where we share a smile
And instead of goodbye
She says would you like to stay for a while
And I watch my love sleep sound at my side
And think of our of times past since the first of our nights
And I whisper to girl, well, could you be my wife
And a voice from her dreams sighs, you bet your bet your bloody life
So drink up ya bastards it's time to go home
You've all had yer fun so it off you must roam
Dead drunk or sober, boys, it's all the same
Till tomorrow comes calling and we do it all again
