Paddy And The Rats
Old Wive’s Tale
[Verse 1]
Strawberry fields and violet hills
The life is nice here, respected all themes
Working all day in hilarious way
That's how we live together
The franklin's a friend, the nun's innocent
The summoner's mild, the parson is saint
The miller is always mills the best wheat
That's how we live together

[Chorus]
We're sober, not boozers
That's how we live together
We're sober, not boozers
That's how we live together this life

[Rhythm change]

[Verse 2]
The franklin's a fool but I really don't care
So I've fucken his daughter and his lady as well
The summoner's always just kickin' my ass
That's how we live together
Pissin' in the soup is our cook's philosophy
With this attitude mate, he's not in minority
The merchant doesn't turn any honest penny
That's how we live together
[Chorus]
We're boozers, not sober
That's how we live together
We're boozers, not sober
That's how we live together this life, hey!

[Verse 3]
The parson gets some good wine before the mass
But it's not a big deal, the state is same in the mass
And after the show stuffing religious ass
That's how we live together
The pigsticker makes the best black pudding
But his mistery spice is his really sodding
The canon is naked and dancing all night
That's how we live together

[Chorus]
We're boozers, not sober
That's how we live together
We're boozers, not sober
That's how we live together this life

[Verse 4]
Strawberry fields and violet hills
The life is rep here and jested all themes
Drinking all day in sensual way
That's how we live together
The franklin's galoot, the nun's dissolute
The summoner's mild, the parson is brute
The miller is always mills for the weed
That's how we live together
[Chorus]
We're boozers, not sober
That's how we live together
We're boozers, not sober
That's how we live together this life
We're boozers, not sober
That's how we live together
We're boozers, not sober
That's how we live together this life
We're boozers, not sober
That's how we live together
We're boozers, not sober
That's how we live together this life
