lyrics

Put on your sannies, we're spragged for twagging
Time to go chudding again
Give us a croggy you big daft moggy
And don't pull a mug like a bairn

Such a lovely day
For cheeky pups at play
Bowling down the lane
Heads high like John Wayne

Don't make a racket, sneak through the snicket
We need to be quiet as mice
Cut the codswallop and give us a leg-up
We ought to be there in a trice

Such a lovely street
For larking lads to meet
Gardens filled with flowers
Trees as tall as towers

Over the wall we go
Silent but deadly hitting the floor
Roughly blending, shadows in the shade
Homemade commandoes here on a raid

Out over the lawn we go
Into the bushes, crouching low
Stop for a breather, looking around
Then into the trees, eyes on the ground

Pick up the good uns, hoy out the bad uns
Nothing as gradely as that
Don't be a divvy, just hold out your pulley
Soon we'll be scoffing like twats

Such a lovely place
For crafty kins to graze
Gathering up the fruit
Every one a beaut

Back over the wall we come
Shimmyshots bulging tighter than drums
Back on to the bike we leap
Lurching and wobbling, picking up speed

Off back down the street we go
Laughing and howling: I told you so!
And there in the doorway looking like a fiend
The man with the wild eyes, hear him scream:

Die, die you bastards, die!
Go on and die, die you bastards, die!
Die, die you bastards, die!
Go on and die, die you bastards, die!
