You're welcome, cnd. I think "And if we're still standing, we'll carry it on round mine" is correct. And from the CD of Commercial Rosd: East End Ding Dong Richard Digance Ev’ry Saturday night, we all got tight In the public bar of the Guiding Light We’d sing a song, get it half wrong Then along came Olivia Newton-John Now there’s Ian Dury, who don’t talk proper like me Tell you one thing, our old boozer ain’t what it used to be Oh! We all had a sing-song A right old East End ding dong Now Sid never cared, sharp or flat He just played a bit of this and that Now we’ve got this disco and it costs a couple of quid Whatever happened to the old days, yeah whatever happened to Sid? There’s flashing lights and lamé tights To wear at a singalong Saturday nights There’s Boney M singin’ in style, all I want is “Any Old Iron!” Now there’s blasted Blondie, she’s something made of glass Bring back Vera Lynn and stick them discos up the yard We all had a sing-song A right old East End ding dong Now Sid never cared, sharp or flat He just played a bit of this and that Now we’ve got this disco and it costs a couple of quid Whatever happened to the old days, yeah whatever happened to Sid? Whatever happened to the old days, yeah whatever happened to Sid? Ev’ry Saturday night, we all got tight In the public bar of the Guiding Light We all crooned out of tune By the Light of the Silvery Moon The Landlord called last orders We went home to our beds No one sang on Sunday nights ‘Cause we all ‘ad ‘orrible ‘eads We all had a sing song A right old East End ding dong Now Sid never cared, sharp or flat He just played a bit of this and that Now we’ve got this disco and it costs a couple of quid Whatever happened to the old days, yeah whatever happened to Sid? Oh, we all had a sing-song A right old East End ding dong Now Sid never cared, sharp or flat He just played a bit of this and that Now we’ve got this disco and it costs a couple of quid Oh, whatever happened to the old days, yeah whatever happened to Sid? Oh, we all had a sing-song A right old East End ding dong Now Sid never cared, sharp or flat He just played a bit of this and that Now we’ve got this disco and it costs a couple of quid Oh, whatever happened to the old days, yeah whatever happened to Sid?
