SCREWTOPS ARE FALLING ON MY HEAD

SCREWTOPS ARE FALLING ON MY HEAD / LEAVING IN A POLICE VAN

Matt McGinn

Screwtops are falling on my head

A bampot’s relieving himself against my trouser leg

It takes ye down a peg

Those screwtops are falling, on my head they keep falling

So I’ll just drink up my Bovril while it’s hot

I cannae eat my pie because it’s all blue-moulded green

Maggots in between

Those screwtops are falling and I hear a copper calling

Sheriff Court for me

I’ve had a few pints and I’m on my way

Tae Hampden Park where I’ll stand and sway

And maybe start a barney before half-time

I’ve spilled some beer on one guy’s coat

Another has me by the throat

I suppose you could say it was time for me to go

Screwtops are falling on my head

A bampot’s relieving himself against my trouser leg

Takes ye down a peg

Those screwtops are falling, on my head they keep falling

So I’ll just drink up my Bovril while it’s hot

I cannae eat my pie because it’s all blue-moulded green

Maggots in between

Those screwtops are falling and I hear a copper calling

Sheriff Court for me

I´m leaving in a police van

I hit a copper wi a can

Oh god, what a way to go

I’m leaving in a police van

I wish I hadnae hit that man

Oh maw, I hate to go

Screwtops are falling on my head

A bampot’s relieving himself against my trouser leg

It takes ye down a peg

Those screwtops are falling, on my head they keep falling

So I’ll just drink up my Bovril while it’s hot

I cannae eat my pie because it’s all blue-moulded green

Maggots in between

Those screwtops are falling and I hear a copper calling

Sheriff Court for me
