๐ Lyrics
Closin' time was closin' in
The pub was out of Jameson
Clancy had concern upon his face
You'd ike to play your favorite song
I'm askin' you to play along
And not incite the riot here in my place
You know I like the Rovers
But this crowd is far from sober
We love you lads
But don't play Bugger Off
That song makes drunken Irishmen
Go stumbling off the edge
Shouting turns to fighting
Breaking bottles o'er their heads
The timing may seem perfect
You may be inclined to scoff
We love you lads
But don't play "Bugger Off"!
You can't ignore the boss man's plea
But tamin' down the revelry
Was not at all what we came here to do
When the night approaches end
There's certain songs the rules we'll bend
And hope we don't offend his motley crew
And he said, "I don't give a damn
If I don't sell another dram"
But you boys had better not play "Bugger Off"!
Cause that song makes drunken Irishmen
Go stumbling off the edge
Shouting turns to fighting
Breaking bottles o'er their heads
The timing may seem perfect
You may be inclined to scoff
But you boys had better not play "Bugger Off"!
Another time, another place
We might avoid the whole disgrace
And maybe let some clearer heads prevail
But it seemed right to cut things loose
And slip our heads right in the noose
Prepared to blame the whole thing on the ale
That's when Clancy rushed the stage
And with his face all flushed with rage (he yelled)
"You bastards better not play Bugger Off!"
That song makes drunken Irishmen
Go stumbling off the edge
Shouting turns to fighting
Breaking bottles o'er their heads
The timing may seem perfect
You may be inclined to scoff
But you bastards better not play "Bugger Off"!
Well we've drunk up all our pay
Might as well play it anyway
It's time to leave we're playing Bugger Off
So bugger off you bastards bugger off!
Bugger off, you bastards bugger off!
Like a herd of bloody swine
Who refuse to leave the trough,
You'll get no more this evening
So you bastards bugger off!
You'll get no more this evening
So you bastards bugger off!
The pub was out of Jameson
Clancy had concern upon his face
You'd ike to play your favorite song
I'm askin' you to play along
And not incite the riot here in my place

But don't play Bugger Off
That song makes drunken Irishmen

Breaking bottles o'er their heads
