ALISON SIDEBOTTOM BY JIM BYRNE

A Morning breeze a lighter rain
Mothers voice is becoming a pain
Get up,Go tert park
And don`t come back till after it`s dark

Another day int park with three rides
What could i do, it`s bobby legs
I`ll be there today from eleven till four
Do i have to go
I cant cope with this anymore

I met a girl called  Alison Sidebottom
Five minutes wi her,It felt good to be there
the lighter rain in my face
after a four hour chat
she said me mums out
Come back to my place.

As we sat and talked i found her a charm
Was it her looks , her bum or her eyes,
Her bacon barms
Or  legs that reached for the skies

It was that she was beautiful
Oozing wit and charm
I was entranced by her fragrance
Her looks her kindness and elegance

On my way home i got very wet
Not cos it was raining
No , i`d fell in the gutter
I`d really fair let
I was in love with Alison Sidebottom
I didn`t care
Come hell or high water i`d been glad to be there

LESLIE`S TEETH BY JIM BYRNE

My Local shopkeeper had me fetchin and carryin
Five nights a week and mornings too
Look after the shop while i visit the loo
Moans and groans i could hear very clear
He sounded constipated
Shouting chuffin nora , oh dear
When i`ve finished on here
Will you go to my house and fetch my false teeth
See florence she`ll wrap them in parchment
if not ask for keith
As i walked back with teeth in my hand
Damp came through the parchment
When i got back the paper had gone
He put them straight in his mouth
Good job he said keep it up john

FLYING FEET BY JIM BYRNE

There`s a man comes down our street
When he passes our door all you can see is his feet
He`s skennin drunk,shouts up the IRA
On top of all this his shins are tattood with the words i want to play

Lizzie Blinkhorn at number seven delights in this
She says its heaven
She`s not seen a mans leg since she was twenty seven
At sixty three she`d love to see
Him calling round for more than tea

Maud and doris at number five
Can`t be doing with all this jive
His teeth fall out when he`s upside down
Maud said to doris
Who is this clown

You know him he`s betty`s chap
They`ve got five kids,she`s always out
He`s a lovely man no wonder he drinks
Have you been in their house
It chuffin stinks

OUR MA BY JIM BYRNE

Our ma`s gorra new fella
Arthur ,a big brass band fan
He`s had six wives int past
And a Jeremy Kyle show int can

She thinks he`s a bedwetter
We all think he`s a pain
he`s puffin on that naffin tuba
Come hail,shine or rain

He thinks he`s a future with our ageing ma
We dont think so cos he`s to fond of a jar
No man`ll ger is feet under er table ever again
She`s done it all, to much of a pain

She`s norra go out our ma
She sits and chews wrigleys
and watches Columbo till its dark
Though she will venture out now an then
For a short stroll rount local park

Brass band nights is norr our ma`s cup of tea
So Arthur wer`e sure will be gone soon ,we`ll see
He`s writin letters and sends flowers every day
Sayin ,dont dump me Betty
I want to be here to stay

On yer bike boy  she shouted througt letterbox one day
I`m tellin you now Arthur your not here to stay
You`ve peed in my bed
Now on your way boy, Ive gorra shockin head
