A Prince in a Pauper's Grave Songtext
von Carter the Unstoppable Sex Machine

In a bar, Johnny drinks
Johnny drinks Johnnie Walker
Tills he runs up a bill he can't pay
He's drinking to the memory
Of a prince in a pauper's grave

And it's go, Johnny go,
Where the bruises don't show
In the churchyard where the nervous get wrecked

And turn off your wireless
For two minutes' silence
Cough up and pay your respects
Then go to the park
Where vicars and tarts
Pray for their tormented souls

By the American graffiti
From Elephant & Castle
In Ford Capri orange
And Volkswagon yellow
And go...


Johnny drinks, Johnny drinks
Johnny drinks Johnnie Walker
Runs up a bill
That the Pope couldn't pay
He's drinking to the memory
Of a prince in a pauper's grave

Johnny drinks, Johnny drinks
Johnny drinks Johnnie Walker
Cuckolds his muscles alive alive 'o

And smashes his bottle
Of unholy water
And it's go, Johnny go, Johnny go, go
Back to the churchyard
Where day out and day in
The original sinners
Are religiously praying
And where there was muck
There's a brass band that's playing
Playing to the memory of a prince
In a pauper's grave


Set 'em up
Set 'em up
Set 'em up
Set 'em up
Set 'em up
Set 'em up
Johnny set 'em up
Johnny set 'em up
Set 'em up, John
Set 'em up, John
Set 'em up, John
Johnny set 'em up
Johnny set 'em up
Now go
