2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 Is this lifeboat faulty?
It’s supposed to keep us afloat
We’ve weathered the first part of the storm
and now we’ve lost the boat!

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 It’s made in England, the best they say
“Hand crafted in the Navy?”
It appears to be printed on the side
A product of Terry Brady

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 It promises to do it’s best
to save us from all storms
It says with him you can’t go wrong
No more will you be pawns

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 But hang on chaps, what’s this i see?
The small print on the side
“Do not use in times of trouble
not tested yet outside!”

6 Leave a comment on verse 6 0 “Only use in calmer seas
in this we beg your pardon
as the Brady life boat you are in
only works in your front garden!”

7 Leave a comment on verse 7 0 S.O.S Swindon in distress!
