CHRIS CHIVERS

(Tune: Theme from "The Black Adder")

The sound of filksongs played off key--
Make haste, switch off the PA system;
Placate him with a pint or three--
If he should start you'll wish you'd missed him.
Chris Chivers, Chris Chivers,
He plays an old guitar:
Chris Chivers, Chris Chivers,
He'll empty any bar.

Flat, his singing and his beer,
Sharp, his playing and his dealing,
High, his hopes when girls are near,
Low, is how they leave him feeling,
Chris Chivers, Chris Chivers,
With many a spacer's lay,
Chris Chivers, Chris Chivers,
We wish he'd go away!
