Up the Hill and Down the Slope
Oh lift my eyes so hungry for the pines
Give me the money and I'll see you right between the eyes
My greedy eyes, my beady eyes
So slow and to stare
They are the bright things I might just get them there
Please, don't say no
Once around the fair
So I know
Please, don't say no
Once around the fair
So I know
Yeah even here
And tits go out and go pants down
Go strange and I punctuate
Great big wheels my father fills
Hearts sound go round and round
Money catches and let you down
Go to hell and down the centre,
Round the cell and going home
Oh gonna lift my eyes so hungry for the pines
Give me a gun and I'll shoot you right between the eyes
And take me here
Full of surprises and once a luxury
Sad thing might not know knowing how
Or may not seem
Sad cheerful journeymen
Running on their dreams
Showing off in the rain
And lies the air
Seesaw round
And stitched you up and go town to town
Go strange and I punctuate
Great big wheels my father fills
Hearts sound go round and round
Money catches and let you down
Over the hill and down the slope
Round the centre and going home
Over the hill and down the slope
So I run around, round, round and going home
Follow Santa round, round, round
I running mighty cackles gonna let you down
Crack my eyes on the undercoat bars
And I'm running, running, then fall about
Here I go in the ebb and flow
Over the hill and down the slope
Over the hill and down the slope
Magpies going down
Magpies going down
Magpies going down
Over the hill and down the slope
Over the hill and down the slope
Give me the money and I'll see you right between the eyes
My greedy eyes, my beady eyes
So slow and to stare
They are the bright things I might just get them there
Please, don't say no
Once around the fair
So I know
Please, don't say no
Once around the fair
So I know
Yeah even here
And tits go out and go pants down
Go strange and I punctuate
Great big wheels my father fills
Hearts sound go round and round
Money catches and let you down
Go to hell and down the centre,
Round the cell and going home
Oh gonna lift my eyes so hungry for the pines
Give me a gun and I'll shoot you right between the eyes
And take me here
Full of surprises and once a luxury
Sad thing might not know knowing how
Or may not seem
Sad cheerful journeymen
Running on their dreams
Showing off in the rain
And lies the air
Seesaw round
And stitched you up and go town to town
Go strange and I punctuate
Great big wheels my father fills
Hearts sound go round and round
Money catches and let you down
Over the hill and down the slope
Round the centre and going home
Over the hill and down the slope
So I run around, round, round and going home
Follow Santa round, round, round
I running mighty cackles gonna let you down
Crack my eyes on the undercoat bars
And I'm running, running, then fall about
Here I go in the ebb and flow
Over the hill and down the slope
Over the hill and down the slope
Magpies going down
Magpies going down
Magpies going down
Over the hill and down the slope
Over the hill and down the slope
