Subject: Lyr Add: HOW EVERYONE BUT SAM WAS A HYPOCRITE
I can usually work out chords myself, but I can't get to grips with this one. Can anyone please help?
HOW EVERYONE BUT SAM WAS A HYPOCRITE (Dave Cousins)
Half a bitter for the vicar, he's here to save your soul He's looking fat and jovial though he's nearly on the dole And Reilly cooks his dinner, she keeps him washed and fed She doesn't need much prompting to jump into his bed
Chorus And they all think they're so grand Yes they all think they're so grand Yes they all think they're so grand But they're not, oh no they're not.
Dr Watson drinks hot whiskeys, he's nearly always high He supplements his income aborting on the sly Mrs Thompson is an angel in the W.V.S. Her meals on wheels are very cheap and she cooks the books for less
Chorus
Sammy Cohen is the bookie, sitting over there Drinking three star brandies, he doesn't seem to care No-one wants to know him, they say he's been inside They say his dear old mother committed suicide
Chorus
Dr Watson charged Anne Reilly a 50 guinea fee For Mr. Thompson's piece of mind as far as I could see Mrs Watson envies Annie hooking for the preacher And everyone thinks Sam is a quite disgusting creature But if the truth was known it would shake all their foundations It seems the preacher lives on Sam's anonymous donations
