My grandmother was a true Celt
In karate she had a black belt
Half Irish, half Scot

In karate she had a black belt
Half Irish, half Scot
Her temper was hot

My grandmother was a true Celt
In karate she had a black belt
Half Irish, half Scot
Her temper was hot
When she knocked you down it was felt

A street mugger grabbed for her bag

A street mugger grabbed for her bag
That mugger was very soon sad

That mugger was soon very sad
He'd picked the wrong one

A street mugger grabbed for her bag
That mugger was soon very sad
He'd picked the wrong one
And this was no fun

A street mugger grabbed for her bag
That mugger was soon very sad
He'd picked the wrong one
And this was no fun
He was rude and called her a hag

She had him begging her to stop

She had him begging her to stop
There was no need to call a cop

She had him begging her to stop
There was no need to call a cop
He just wanted to run

She had him begging her to stop
There was no need to call a cop
He just wanted to run
But tripped o’er a bun

There was no need to call a cop
He just wanted to run
But tripped o'er a bun
The baker threw from inside his shop

A big crowd had gathered around

A big crowd had gathered around
The man lay groaning on the ground

The police sirens were blaring

A big crowd had gathered around
The man lay groaning on the ground
The police sirens were blaring
The mugger despairing

A big crowd had gathered around
The man lay groaning on the ground
The police sirens were blaring
The mugger despairing
He wished he was homeward bound

Summer is on its way

Summer is now on its way
Yet still we get rain every day

Summer is now on its way
Yet we still get rain every day
It makes us depressed

Summer is now on its way
Yet we still get rain every day
It makes us depressed
As we become obsessed

Summer is now on the way
Yet we still get rain every day
It makes us depressed
As we become obsessed
Trying to keep the damp away

I dream of beaches in the sun

Sunloungers and cocktails, such fun

I dream of beaches in the sun
Sun loungers and cocktails, such fun
Relax, chill out, no more stress

I dream of beaches in the sun
Sun loungers and cocktails, such fun
Relax, chill out, no more stress
Just enjoy pure happiness

I dream of beaches in the sun
Sun loungers and cocktails, such fun
Relax , chill out, no more stress
