Brighton


if i had my boots from brighton

if i was not on the dole

if i drove without my lights on

if i danced around a pole


if i had my boots from brighton

if i had a wad of cash

if my life was not a trite one

if i had a heart attack


if i had my boots from brighton

if my fore had not gone aft

if my shoulder had been cried on

tragedy? don't make me laugh


if i had my boots from brighton

if i was a moomintroll –

(nothing left to waste my life on)

emperor mentor - oh how droll


if i had my boots from brighton

(dib dib dib gone like a flash)

if i had my blue bri nylon..

if my hopes had-not-got dashed


if i had my boots from brighton

if i had become a vet

if I’d put my sisters tights on

if my mum had wrung my neck

if i had my boots from brighton

if i took an early bath

if i had you to rely on

set in wet and salty glass

if i had my boots from brighton

if i won the football pools

hyper septic crepid syphon

if i did not always lose

if i had my boots from brighton

i could walk the narrow path

nurture this biotic micron

if i had a backstage pass


if i had my boots from brighton

if my custard was not lumpy

if i quoted monty python

if my lovely had not dumped me


if i had my boots from brighton

if i had a set of tools

ask despair she's made of silence

if our lass had hid my booze

if i had my boots from brighton

if i had the strength to choose

i'd be he man buzzcock tarzan

landed gentry on the cruise

if was not rigid frightened

i would laugh and scoff at death

blah blah woof woof enid blyton

if and if and yet and yet.
