All Poshed Up With My Daisies in My Hand

歌詞

When the lady called Godiva rode upon a white horse grand I was standin' at the corner with me daisies in me 'and! I always take 'em with me everywhere because I'm sure If ever I get tempted they will always keep me pure! So I'm all poshed up with me daisies in me 'and London wouldn't be Completed without me There's Nelson on his momument, and further down The Strand You'll find me in a dustbin with me daisies in me 'and! L poshed up with me dai I'm not narrow minded and I never made a fuss When my wife brought a young man friend to come and live with us He makes himself at home, he's like one of our family Each evening in the fields we go, the wife and 'im and me All poshed up with me daisies in me 'and We sit upon the grass Until it's dark, and then alas The wife lays in his arms and off they go to slumberland And I keep shushing cows off with me daisies in me 'and! They say we come from monkeys, and I quite believe it's true 'Cause monkeys have their love affairs, the same as me and you I often go round to the zoo to see 'em at their play They feel at home when I'm there so I went last Saturday All poshed up with me daisies in me 'and One big chimpanzee Started makin' eyes at me Then one threw me some monkey nuts and thought the fun was grand And another threw some water on the daisies in me 'and! I went to see a boxin' show, I'd not seen one for years The crowd had broken noses, some had knobs upon their ears A champion jumped into the ring, the crowd began to cheer He said, "I want to practice, will somebody come up here?" All poshed up with me daisies in me 'and They pushed me in the ring And that giant made a swing! I heard somebody shout before the blow had time to land "No flowers by request, he's got his daisies in his 'and!" When the roll is called up yonder It's a cert I'll never reach that happy land! But Charley Peace and Crippen Sure to think there's been a trippin' When they see me stand amongst 'em with me daisies in me 'and!
