And They're Off - Philip Quast[00:00:00]

Ponies in the sun the race is soon beginning[00:00:07]

My father bet the family fortune on a sleek brown horse[00:00:12]

My father had a hunch[00:00:19]

We gave up lunch so daddy could make a wager[00:00:22]

Ma would scoff she would scoff hear her scoff[00:00:27]

And they're off they are off[00:00:31]

And they move in a herd like a four letter word[00:00:37]

And they're off[00:00:39]

Tickets float to the ground and the band starts to play as[00:00:43]

The horses go round[00:00:51]

And they're off[00:00:55]

Mummy sat and cried but dad was unaffected[00:00:59]

You ever had a better two minutes in the last three years[00:01:05]

We said but dad the dumb horse lost[00:01:10]

He said sometimes joy has a terrible cost I know that[00:01:14]

Ma would scoff she would scoff hear her scoff[00:01:20]

And they're off they're off[00:01:23]

Mummy's biting his neck as they roll on the deck[00:01:29]

And they're off[00:01:32]

There is blood on the ground[00:01:35]

And the band starts to play as the horses go round[00:01:41]

And they're off[00:01:47]

Isn't life funny people loose money and have fun[00:01:49]

Betting of course is hell on the horses[00:01:55]

And the families where the betting is done[00:01:57]

It's a joke to believe someone won[00:02:01]

All they did was fight plus they discussed the weather[00:02:05]

My father bet the family fortune till it disappeared[00:02:11]

They also laughed a lot[00:02:19]

That was the thing I often forgot to tell you[00:02:22]

But it's true yes it's true it is true[00:02:27]

And he's off daddy's off[00:02:30]

We get letters from Maine where he tries to explain why he's off[00:02:36]

What was lost was not found[00:02:42]

And the band starts to play as the horses go round[00:02:48]

And they're off[00:02:55]

And they're off they're off[00:03:00]

And they move in a herd like a four letter word[00:03:06]

And they're off[00:03:09]

There is blood on the ground[00:03:12]

And the band starts to play as the horses go round[00:03:18]

And round and around and around and around and around[00:03:24]

And round and around and around and around and around[00:03:28]
