If you come around to mourn for Grandad [00:00:09]

Don't dress up in black cause [00:00:12]

Although me Grandad's dead and buried odds on he'll be back yes [00:00:14]

Although they stuffed him in a coffin and read out the will and [00:00:18]

Although he's six foot deep in darkness he'll never lie still [00:00:22]

He's made of sterner stuff he's not dead enough [00:00:26]

Angels saints and seraphim [00:00:33]

Please please will you try to keep an eye [00:00:36]

On him [00:00:42]

On his ninetieth birthday Grandad went down for a drink now [00:00:44]

Me Grandad is a rabid dipso with a throat like a sink he [00:00:48]

Drank himself toward the skyline and his friends to the floor just [00:00:52]

To prove how fit he was for boozing for ninety years more [00:00:56]

Your pearly gates he'll climb when it's opening time [00:01:00]

Angels saints and seraphim [00:01:06]

You'll you’ll find it hard to keep a guard [00:01:10]

On him [00:01:15]

They brought him home upon a handcart with his legs in the air he [00:01:17]

Was singing Rule Britannia backwards in his underwear he [00:01:21]

Challenged all the county police force to a fight right away then [00:01:24]

He offered to put the Ladies' Union in the family way [00:01:28]

Your crystal domes will shake when he makes his break [00:01:32]

Angels saints and seraphim [00:01:38]

Please please don't expect that much respect [00:01:42]

From him [00:01:47]

The doctor lifted up an eyelid and pronounced him gone but [00:01:49]

To judge from Grandad's finger signals the doctor was wrong they [00:01:53]

Dressed him in his Sunday night shirt they combed out his hair but [00:01:56]

They couldn't get my Grandad's boots off he'd need them up there [00:02:01]

Your silken wings he'll shed He will paint Paradise red [00:02:05]

Angels saints and seraphim [00:02:11]

He'll give you the slip so get a grip [00:02:15]

On him [00:02:20]

Even at the solemn moment he wouldn't behave for [00:02:22]

I heard him whistling in his coffin on his way to the grave he [00:02:26]

Took off toward the New Jerusalem with his pinch of salt I [00:02:30]

Distinctly heard him flatulating in his marble vault [00:02:34]

Your candles will be dimmed when he gets the wind [00:02:37]

Angels saints and seraphim [00:02:44]

Although he's old although he's cold [00:02:48]

Keep a tight hold on him[00:02:55]
