There's a Boy's Team in the queue
There's not much else here for us to do
We've had a drink, we've had a few
Down Ad Lib on Hope Street

Dear old barmaid took it on the chin
When we asked for Orange Shit within
Turned out that they had no Sloe Gin
Down Ad Lib on Hope Street

Rain on me come pouring down
For drinking beer we are reknown
And d'you know where we were found?
Down Ad Lib on Hope Street

There's The Cathouse down the street
That could well make out night complete
But first I think I'll take a leak
Down Ad Lib on Hope Street

Some faces are not out today
Piemaster, Neil and HK
Bowdy caused us much delay
Down Ad Lib on Hope Street

Rain on me come pouring down
For drinking beer we are reknown
And d'you know where we were found?
Down Ad Lib on Hope Street

Rain on me come pouring down
For drinking beer we are reknown
And d'you know where we were found?
Down Ad Lib on Hope Street

Then Ring suggested Bols Blue
With Tobasco Sauce - the thing to do
It tasted odd but we all got through
Down Ad Lib on Hope Street

Whilst our senses were aware
We got right up out of our chairs
We went to the Cat in despair
Near Ad Lib on Hope Street

Rain on me come pouring down
For drinking beer we are reknown
And d'you know where we were found?
Down Ad Lib on Hope Street
