I shout all my obscenities from steeples,
I'm off to see the Bootleg Beatles,
but please dont label me a madman,
as the bootleg Mark Chapman,
theres far too many in this town,
Cafe bars, idiots and pidgeons,
are gonna do what we can,
so me and the ombudsman,
Yes, some of my pull-overs are roll-necked,
when the evening sun goes down.

It kind of breaks up the ennui,
But your experimental side project,
Opposite the Bannister and Shamrock,
Must have put 10 years on me,
Which used to be the Rose and Crown,
I like to play Pat Boone,
On the county bassone,
When the evening sun goes down,
When the evening sun,
When the evening sun goes down,

When the evening sun,
When the evening sun goes down,

When the evening sun,
When the evening sun,
When the evening sun goes down,
There are questions in corners of my mind that lurk,

(When the evening sun goes down)
Like How do the road gritters get to work'
(When the evening sun goes down)
Answer me that, and you could win a cruise,
(When the evening sun goes down)
And heres Judy Tsuke to take us up to the news,
(When the evening sun goes down)

Is this my final dressing gown,
Are these my ultimate Pajamas,
I'm sending on this rhyme,
When the evening sun goes down,
deep in injury time,
When the evening sun goes down,
When the evening sun goes down,
When the evening sun goes....
