Just been on a night out with Mawkin You get tunes, tunes, tunes and no squawkin' You should see them strings break As they play Battered Hake And the 'Worms shriek 'That's our tune, yer farkin'.....
Or,
Oxford Festival booked this band 'Twas Mawkin, finest in all the land They went in search for a kebab van Said Squeezy Spiers, 'I'm your man' Through Oxford's moonlit streets they trod Past dreaming spires and the book-filled Bod Till at last they spied that kebab fella Plying his trade of salmonella. Alas poor Jamie got left behind Alone with his fiddle in the rain and wind. He strode off up the road to Woodstock Thinking to find that window to knock At the rear of the Half Moon pub.
Years have rolled on since this happened...
But the short version is, everyone found St Clements And the session still plays on.
