Skipping songs from the past

[Paddy]

And long live romance

[Ged]

Paddy the rope holder

You should have been out with the boys playin' footy

[gregs dad]

It`s raining it`s pouring
the man next door is snoring
He went to bed with a pain in his head
and never got up next morning

[Paddy]

Ged I played footie with Jimmy Case, Beechwood united and I was good ,if you ever speak to him ask him about Knighty. And I've got eight sisters and eight brothers. Skip to my Lou my darling

[Ged]

Pardon. I've only ever ran to the loo. My mate

[Spike]

My brother billy had a 10 foot W.. Nah better not

[Spike]

My better half was talking about these skips songs the other day, will have to show her these.

[Ged]

I thought that was Jake?

[Spike]

you calling my missus Jake

[Spike]

She thought it was a Snake
So she hit it with a rake

[Ged]

That's not a mistake, more like a p1ss take.

As a poet of sorts skipping songs amuse and I find them interesting because of their spontaniety. They also reflect class consciousness at times. However it is also fair to say the ingenuity of them springs from the fairer sex.

Heres one we sang at School.

If you want to go to Heaven when you die
Wear a red and white bonnet
With Liverpool on it
If you want to go to Heaven when you die

If you want to go to Hell when you die
Wear a blue and white bonnet
With Everton on it
If you want to go to Hell when you die

Depending on your allegiance
