The Half Man Half Biscuit Lyrics Project

Busking this at Embankment Tube tomorrow

98 songs transcribed and counting!

Don’t keep calling it the Book of Revelations

Shit Arm, Bad Tattoo has probably been sent in to me (thanks, by the way!) by more people than any other, so it’s about time I posted it up. Great song, nothing to do with The Libertines, ‘cos Nigel said so (yeah, right). Another good modified football chant features. Thanks to Paul, Tony, Peter, EskimoEric etc…

    Haven’t listened to this for a while but I always thought it was “hospital parking scheme”

    Also thought it was “I went in the High Street”

    Could well be wrong on both counts though

  2. It is “hospital parking scheme”, bad editing on my part. I also thought it was “I went in the High Street”, until someone suggested “advent”, which seems more likely, and better.

  3. Another vote for “Advent” - because you only busk when it’s Christmas, innit?

  4. Paul

    I think it could be ‘I vent in the high street’ as in letting off steam. Maybe?!
