10 Dec 01 - 10:31 AM (#607134) Subject: Napoleon Bonaparte parody From: Gervase Anyone help with the lyrics for the parody of My name's Napoleon Bonaparte, I'm the conqueror of all nations... which mentions drinks of all hues, Brakspears and other noxious fluids, and ends up with the singer being slung out? Yes, I'm afraid it's that time of year again... |

10 Dec 01 - 11:31 AM (#607159) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Napoleon Bonaparte parody From: Jeri There was an earlier thread here. Micca was looking for the lyrics and didn't get 'em, but he did say it was a Dave Houlden song. |

Unfortunately I can't find my copy at the moment, but if you can't find the song, let me know and I'll put you in touch with Malcolm. Mick |

(Must learn about line spacing one of these days).... Oh me name's Napoleon Bonaparte. I'm the conqueror of all nations I've vanquished German legions, and sent Kings from their thrones I've banished Dukes and Earls, and splendid congregations But now I am transported to St. Helena's shore. I never meant to start a fight, when I went out last Friday night A quiet drink and a game of darts was all I had in mind I cannot quite remember now, just what was said to start the row It may have been the politics; it often is I find CHORUS I was just about to fall apart; I'd had more than my ration I'd had ten pints of Brakspears; they'd have done me on my own Then I got on the vodka, scotch, and drinks from every nation And then I was transported on my ear through the pub door. There was an Ulsterman in there, contentious bugger with red hair He spoke of good King Billy, and he kicked me in the shins Then someone said, "God bless the Pope" well, after that there was no hope Before the fighting started I downed a treble gin I tore the door from off the Gents, it gave the landlord grave offence I smashed his Space Invaders, and I kicked his fruit machine What people thought was really rude was when I on the barmaid spewed I'll have to find another pub, I might try Cockpole Green.” MCP and I tried Cockpole Green a couple of years ago, and the pub appeared to have closed. |
