Collaboration with The Hair Thieves

Thought I’d never learn till my dying day
The art of getting my own sweet way
‘Cos around these parts, art’s a dirty word
And words make all the difference, all the difference in the world
He couldn’t take a hint, so I’m talking with my fists
I’m making a point to the new opportunist

I don’t suffer fools, especially tonight
I’m alcohol fuelled and about to ignite
He floated into town, like a piece of litter
Now he’s floating face down in the river
But I can predict: he won’t be missed
‘Cos nobody saw the new opportunist

So what if tomorrow brings unusual weather?
I’ve done all I can to keep us together
There’s all you can drink at the wedding reception
And the cops* help themselves to another deception
If you ever think of leaving, let me tell you this:
You better give my love to the new opportunist


You can give my love to the new opportunist
