Keep Your Receipts

Yon:	It seems like...
	... only yesterday,
Tripod:	When my father sat me down and said:
Yon:	"Have a good gig at the Prince Pat tomorrow night".
	It was...
Tripod:	... actually this morning,
	And he got the dates confused.
Yon:	My Dad... he's a fuckwit!

Tripod:	I remember another time,
	When my father sat me down and said:
Gatesy:	"The people in the row behind can't see".
Tripod:	I said, "Dad, we're on a bus,
	And there's nothing much to see".
Gatesy:	And he said,
Tripod:	"The landscape, son, the landscape".

Tripod:	When I reached a certain age,
	As all the young boys do,
Scod:	My body started changing,
	I grew another head.
Tripod:	I had an operation,
	And I had that head removed,
Scod:	Which was fortunate 'cause at the time there was a shortage of head donors.

Tripod:	My Dad took really good care of me,
	Sat by my side every day.
	When I started to recover,
	Dad told me I was old enough,
	To hear some of the things he had to say.
	Hey hey hey.

Yon:	Oh... he wasn't Fat Albert, my Dad... get that clear.

Scod:	My Dad said,
Tripod:	"Son, you've turned out nice,
	You're old enough to hear my advice.
	You're a man now,
	And so I want to tell you what I know"

	"Son, keep your receipts.
	Keep your receipts.
Scod:	If money is a cash cow, then planning is the meat,
	So son, keep your receipts,
Tripod:	Keep your receipts.

Scod:	Son, keep your receipts.
	Keep your receipts.
	If life's a bog in Ireland, then wisdom is the peat,
	So son, keep your receipts,
	Keep your receipts"

	(He keeps playing until Gatesy unplugs the guitar to stop him)
