boothby graffoe - hartlepool كلمات الأغنية
[verse]
there were six maybe ten maybe half a dozen men
walking down the beach at night and walking back again
happy with the money they were getting from the king
watching for the dangers of the french napoleon
wasn’t far away, he was just across the shore
sitting at his table with his plans for global war
standing on the chair so he could see a little more
history records that he was really rather short
so this half_a_dozen, ten, maybe six_strong band
came across a monkey that was sitting on the sand
thought it was a frenchiе, so they chased it through the sеa
caught it in the dunes, tried to string it from a tree
and the story is, they put it on trial
asked it lots of questions, tortured it awhile
didn’t speak the lingo, so it never said a word
then they tried to hang it, which is where it gets absurd
[pre_chorus]
it was a monkey
they have a tail
you try to hang one
you’re gonna fail
[chorus]
it was hartlepool where they hung the little monkey
hartlepool, back in 1810
hartlepool, it’s never been forgotten
and we sing about it now just like they sang about it then
hartlepool where they hung the little monkey
hartlepool, back in 1810
hartlepool, it’s never been forgotten
and we sing about it now just like they sang about it then
[verse]
and there are thems that say it was maybe not a monkey
that was hung that day with a rope around his throat
but an alien had fallen off his sp_ceship
washed up on the shore just like he’d fallen off a boat
’cause his face was weird, his clothes were funny
his ray gun was wet so it wouldn’t work
either way, he was not a lucky bunny
to be washed up there, of all the places on earth
[chorus]
hartlepool where they hung the little monkey
hartlepool, back in 1810
hartlepool, it’s never been forgotten
and we sing about it now just like they sang about it then
hartlepool where they hung the little monkey
hartlepool, back in 1810
hartlepool, it’s never been forgotten
and we sing about it now just like they sang about it then
[verse]
it was a fine old life in the early 19th century
for the working class, it was pain and tears
the food was cr_p, the air was black
and the average life expectancy was less than thirty years
twenty_eight
and when the french set sail, it was for the revolution
calling all the proletariat to join their fold
they had kids on the ships, they called them powder_monkeys
they were six, maybe seven, maybe eight years old
[chorus]
it was hartlepool where they hung the little monkey
hartlepool, back in 1810
hartlepool, it’s never been forgotten
and we sing about it now just like they sang about it then
hartlepool where they hung the little monkey
hartlepool, back in 1810
hartlepool, it’s never been forgotten
and we sing about it now just like they sang about it then
[bridge]
well, it all comes down to how you wanna be remembered
it all comes down to how you wanna be remembered
it all comes down to how you wanna be remembered
it all comes down to how you wanna be remembered
[chorus]
hartlepool where they hung the little monkey
hartlepool, back in 1810
hartlepool, it’s never been forgotten
and we sing about it now just like they sang about it then
hartlepool where they hung the little monkey
hartlepool, back in 1810
it all comes down to how you wanna be remembered
and we sing about it now just like they sang about it then
