Pop the Weasel - That's Life

I'm like sitting in me boozer
Saw this bird and thought I'd schmooze 'er
Why wait? I'm thinking this could be fate
She looks great, but I'm too late

There's a geezer in a whistle
Pricklier than a thistle
He's well in and I was thinking he was a tin
I can't win, but gotta grin

But she might just be the one, son, you never can tell
If I fixed her with me minces, put her under me spell
Thinking she's in heaven while yours truly's in hell
That's life, that's life, that's life

So feelin' a bit defeated
Licked me wounds and I retreated
Another pint and I settles down for the night
She's worth a chat, but ain't all that

So I minds me own, keep drinking
But that bird she got me thinking
I just might, and if I get my timing just right
If she's tight, tonight's the night

Stranger things have happened to mice and men
She's had a butcher's at me and she's done it again
I've had a couple more swifties now I'd give her a ten
That's life, that's life, that's life

So, I pops out for a salmon
Try to get me game on
Oh I'm cool, and the Lord knows I'm no fool

But who's that heading over, ain't the local wildlife
Holy Flaming Nora, it's me trouble and strife
Looking daggers at me and carrying a knife
On my life!

Like a whippet down the dog track
I ain't about to look back
Can't pretend, she'll 'av me in the end

There never was a time when I more needed a friend
I bungs the Governor a drink, he'll defend me
He's seen it all before and knows I'll be round again

I'm straight over that bar and out his back door
Never run bleedin' faster except from the law
And here's me telling you son, you know the score
My life. My life. My life
