Tarpaulin Cover Download Back when you were my Delilah And I was your wee bonny Tom You committed a very silly sin And I just couldn't move on T'was like being left at the alter One minute there, then you were gone I was stood there cryin' and weepin' You and I were an expired coupon That's when I decided to set fire to your tarpaulin cover T'was my intention to see you suffer I had no idea I'd set fire to your long-lost half-brother Please pass on my warmest regards to your surrogate mother Days turned to weeks and the days turned to night Since I caused that great fire I was front page news, singing the blues About being some little liar They tried to lock me up But didn't have what they require They couldn't prove - they sure did accuse I said I was out in Berkshire They tried to finger me, so I fingered them back It felt so good, like four grammes of smack And when I came down there was no feeling of remorse I was still hung like a prized racehorse I'm not that sorry to have set fire to your tarpaulin cover So what if your scabby burns don't begin to recover If you want another sibling you can always order another I heard you can go online - it'll be just fine, you'll be surprised at what you'll discover I refuse to pay or replace your burnt parpaulin cover I won't repair the damage caused by this jealous lover It serves you right for not standing by with a suitable snuffer Would I do it again? Fuck yes, my friend - I'd burn you and any mother fucker It's a wee bit of bother for the tarpaulin cover Oh, you tittered and laughed but it's not as bad as a broken crankshaft It's a wee bit, wee bit Oh, bother --- Release notes: All words & music by Tico Jnr. except Backing vocals by Joe Pastgnarly Fire provided by Kombustable Kris What a saucy opener. 'I could just see a bit of strumpet walking out to her dancing pole at the start of this ditty', states an affirming Tico Jnr. It certainly does invoke a sexy sound, although if you delve into the rhymes you will hear a rather dark undertone. 'Like the rest of this album, everything appears in the order that I recorded it - I gave no thought to the tracklisting, so this is the very first romp that I recorded from when I decided the planet needs me to do another album. Although I never knew where it might go on the album, it works lovingly & lovely as an opener' shouts Ti'.
