"Who're yer goin' to meet, BILL?
'Ave yer bought the street, BILL?" Laugh!! I thought I should 'ave died. Knock'd 'em in the West-min-is-ter Road! Some says nasty things about the moke, "Won't got fur afore _'is_ back is broke!" That's all envy, cos we're kerridge folk, Like the Tory Toffs wot 'ave to _go_! Straight! it woke the Tories up a bit. Thought BRUM JOE would go and 'ave a fit, When my Missus, who 'as Irish wit, Sez "I 'ate Brum Brooms[1] becos they're low!" _CHORUS_. "Wot cher!" all the neighbours cried. "Who're yer goin' to meet, BILL? 'Ave yer bought the street, BILL?" Missus, she the Shamrock waved with pride. Knock'd 'em in the West-min-is-ter Road! Some sez werry soon the moke'll stop; Not hup to _our_ weight, but bound ter drop. No use whackin' 'im with pole or prop, 'Cos the warmint wasn't _made_ to go. Well, it ain't hexact a four-in-'and; But me and the Missus hunderstand, If we drive together we shall "land," Wich to Tory toffs'll be a blow. |
