Half Man Half Biscuit — Evening of Swing (Has Been Cancelled)
(intro F C x6)
FC
I fell asleep amongst the boulders strewn between
FC
Glyder Fach and Glyder Fawr and I saw in a dream
FC
Your charmless associates in a stretch limousine
FC
They were plunging headlong into a ravine
BbCF
And your evening of swing had been cancelled
BbCF
Your evening of swing had been cancelled
BbCFBbCC
Your evening of swing had been cancelled, your evening of swing.
FC
Came the behemoth, seven score and nine
FC
To rescue all the children from their parents on the line
FC
And they took them to a crash site, unfurled a ball of twine
FC
And tied a bunch of flowers around the speed limit sign
FC
No more the Multiplex stood in its stead
FC
Pleasure grounds with maze in the shape of a sled
FC
And outside "The Gielgud" a neon sign read:
FC
"Equus On The Buses" starring Mr Ed
BbCF
And your evening of swing had been cancelled

Your evening of swing had been cancelled
Bb C F Bb C (F C x10)
Your evening of swing had been cancelled, your evening of swing.
FC
And a plague fell upon the Retail Park
FC
And a storm broke over Henman Hill
FC
And the christening party arsehole who hitherto had blurred
FC
My conception of man as nature's final word
FC
Was fleeing from the lava, his SatNav pleading thus:
FC
"I'm not from round here mate, you should've got the bus"
FC
Enter then a real rat pack, millions pouring in
FC
And Ezekiel punched Dan Brown and the knights are drawing in
BbCF
And your evening of swing had been cancelled
BbCF
Your evening of swing had been cancelled

Your evening of swing had been cancelled, your evening of swing.
