Bank Holiday Monday

Album: Pull The Pin (2007)

  • Woke up with the shakes on the bathroom floor
    The sun is shining, I felt like drinking some more
    Sunday's takeaway welded on my Elvis tray
    It's a pound a can in the garden all day

    Start at noon, keep on going through 'till two
    Dabbing speed like a monkey in a fucking zoo
    Get your girl in the bathroom, after flirting all day
    It's the time of your life on bank holiday Monday

    Street fighting
    Yet some day
    You get out

    [Chorus]
    Out of Mondays
    Yes some say
    They were the best days
    Out of our minds
    Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

    It's eight o'clock time to catch the next bus to town
    When the drink is in, the wit is most definitely out
    Late bars, fight starts, between my brother and I
    Get kicked out so we hold tight and take it outside

    Dodging cars, new scars, fighting out on the road
    Knees me in the chest my head and ass hits the floor
    Swallowed tongue, what we done, someone's hand in my mouth
    Got to pull it back out on a bank holiday Monday

    Street fighting
    Yet some day
    You get out

    [Chorus]

    I want to stick him real hard with a kitchen knife
    But we share the same bed in my mam's house tonight
    I wait, I wait, I wait, I wait, until he walks up the lane
    It's all the fun of the fair on bank holiday Monday

    Street fighting
    Yet some day
    You get out
