BS 38 Bloody Brass Handles
Traditional
Look at the coffin, bloody brass handles,
Chorus
Isn't it grand boys, to be bloody well dead.
Let's not have a sniffle; let's have a bloody good cry,
And always remember the longer you live,
The sooner you'll bloody well die.
Look at the flowers, all bloody great weeds,
Look at the mourners, bloody great hypocrites,
Look at the preacher, bloody sanctimonious,
Look at the widow, bloody great lady
Look at the choirboys, bloody castrated
Look at the tombstone, bloody great boulder
Look at the gravesite, bloody great hole
Look at the corpse, bloody drunk bastard
Look at the baron, bloody old geezer
Look at the new knights, bloody large egos
Look at the swashers, bloody great fops
etc.
