In reply to the discussion: Post a lyric from a song by an obscure singer or band & see if anyone knows the song or the band w/o using Google [View all]The Wandering Harper
(915 posts)60. one from my favorite lyricist
don't know how obscure they're considered
At the time I was working for a landlord
And he was the meanest bastard that you have ever seen
And to lose a single penny would grieve him awful sore
And he was a miserable bollocks and a bitch's bastard's whore
And it's lend me ten pounds, I'll buy you a drink
And mother wake me early in the morning
I recall that we took care of him one Sunday
We got him out the back and we broke his fucking balls
And maybe that was dreaming, and maybe that was real
But all I know is I left the place without a penny or fuck all
And it's lend me ten pounds, I'll buy you a drink
And mother wake me early in the morning
