Let's raise a can to the drinking man
and the landlords and landladies too.
And sup a few drops to the barley and hops
that go to make our brew.
And here's to the pubs and the old drinking clubs
and the one that's the top of that list
is the one that most deserves a toast
- the pub that itself looks pissed!
So, whether you're Geordie, a Cockney or Scouse,
come for a drink in the old 'Crooked House'
that leans like a drunken tar -
but hang on to your jug or you'll look a right mug
as it slides away up the bar.
But if you're a bloke that enjoys a joke
there's one here that musn't be missed -
with the floor aslant and walls awry,
it's a hoot how the Salvation Army guy
goes staggering round like he's pissed!
So - let's pick up our beer and give her a cheer,
and while architects measure and probe her,
and their eyes they rub this cockemeyed pub
makes the likes of us look sober!
