Pogues lyrics : "Bottle Of Smoke"

Thanks and praises
Thanks to jesus
I bet on the bottle of smoke

I went to hell
And to the races
To bet on the bottle of smoke


The day being clear
The sky being bright

He came up on the left
Like a streak of light
Like a drunken $#&@

On a saturday night
Up came the bottle of smoke


Twenty $#&@ing five to one
Me gambling days are done
I bet on a horse called the bottle of smoke

And my horse won

Stewards inquiries

Swift and fiery
I had the bottle of smoke
Inquisitions and suppositions

I had the bottle of smoke

$#&@ the stewards

A trip to lourdes
Might give the old $#&@ers
The power of sight

Screaming springers and stoppers
And call out coppers
But the money still gleams in my hand like a light


Bookies cursing
Cars reversing

I had the bottle of smoke
Glasses steaming
Vessels bursting

I had the bottle of smoke
Slip a fifty to the wife
And for each brat a crisp new five

To give me a break on a saturday night
When I had the bottle of smoke
Priests and maidens

Drunk as pagans
They had the bottle of smoke
Sins forgiven and celebrations

They had the bottle of smoke

$#&@ the yanks

And drink their wives
The moon is clear
The sky is bright

I'm happy as the horses %#@!e
Up came the bottle of smoke
