paroles de chanson Lively! - Lonnie Donegan
Now,
"lively"
is
a
funny
word
It
means
a
lot
of
things
But
to
the
burglar
people
An
urgent
call
it
brings
Cause'
when
they
breakin'
open
safes
Or
nailin'
up
mail
vans
Lively!
just
means
"Scarper
boys"
To
all
the
different
gangs
Chorus:
Lively,
lively,
the
night
is
going
fast
Lively,
lively,
we
both
got
murky
pasts
Lively,
lively,
don't
leave
that
bloke
untied
Cause'
if
you
did
it's
a
penny
to
a
quid
that
we
both
end
up
inside!

We
broke
into
a
spinster's
house
While
she
was
knelt
in
prayer
She
was
praying
for
a
man
What
sort
she
didn't
care
We
had
to
dive
beneath
the
bed
The
dust
fair
made
us
sneeze
"Cor,
that
was
quick!"
the
old
girl
cried
And
jumped
up
off
her
knees!
Repeat
Chorus
Solo

Now
we
rehearsed
for
days
and
days
A
smash
an'
grab
to
do
"You
throw
the
brick"
one
bloke
said
"And
I'll
leave
the
grab
to
you"
The
brick
went
through
the
window
"Now
grab!
- they
cried
- "And
quick!"
It
wasn't
till
we
got
away
I
found
I'd
grabbed
our
brick!
[Spoken]
Oh
lively,
lively...
Here...
I
sung
this
song
once
at
a
policemen's
dance
But
I
was
only
singing
for
coppers
Oooo
what
a
gagster
Whilst
on
the
run
once
from
the
law
I
rushed
into
a
church
I
mixed
with
lots
of
people
just
to
confuse
the
search
I've
found
meself
right
up
the
front,
the
best
place
I
could
hide
I
had
a
fright
when
some
bloke
said
"Got
the
ring?
Here
comes
the
bride!"
Whoops!
Chorus
Solo

The
shop
steward
of
our
union
was
up
before
the
judge
Who
sentenced
him
to
18
months,
our
steward
lodged
a
grudge
The
maximum
is
twelve
M'lud*,
the
judge
replied
"What
rot!"
You
always
wanted
time
and
half
and
that's
just
what
you've
got!"
*(M'lud
= Abbreviation
of
My
Lord)
Lively,
lively,
the
night
is
going
fast
Lively,
lively,
we
both
got

Lively,

don't
leave
that
bloke
untied
Or
if
you
did
it's
a

Oh

Hymie
La,

(Different
Voice)
Rosin

(Yet
another
voice)
Good
luck
then
snapper,
here
comes
the
coppers!
(Lonnie
again)
I've
had
some
beer,
if
we
run
in
here...
We
both
end
up
insiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiide!
*Twopence...
pronounced...
tup'ence
The

Glass

along
with
most
types
of
glass
bottles.
