Jimmy the rat lost his money at the tracks

Now he drinks in the corner with a baseball bat

Says "highball they love you, lowball they'll throw you away"

Straight along from him there's Juliet the grim

A guy put his on her skirt when she went for the job

Now the big man has not been seen in a couple of days



The mighty Odin sits with one glass eye

The other tends to wander and his wife will tell you how

The glass eyes caused by the other's tendency to wonder

And Peter looks doubtful like he's gonna get outed

If he hears three crows he'll deny your existence

If you pay him a twenty he'll swear he was drinking with you all night



The mouths keep on moving

But they're de-de-de-de-dead

And the drinks keep on coming

But they're de-de-de-de-dead

And they're good for the money

But they're de-de-de-de-dead

They go, ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh



Sat all austere, they're dubbed the three musketeers

Though none of them have spoken in all the years

They've been coming here, the stains on their shirt is like a uniform

Now mother Mary, she's a mother to six

But at this point in the evening she tends to forget it

She'll lie with anybody but her love loss ex Jimmy "the rat"



The mouths keep on moving

But they're de-de-de-de-dead

And the drinks keep on coming

But they're de-de-de-de-dead

And they're good for the money

But they're de-de-de-de-dead

They go, ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh



Mouths keep on moving

But they're de-de-de-de-dead

And the drinks keep on coming

But they're de-de-de-de-dead

And they're good for the money

But they're de-de-de-de-dead

They go, ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
