Tanks at the marble staircase

187

Tank engines growl.
Their long journey is over.
The doors fly open, marble glistens in the evening sun.
But where are the guards? No one is here.
A child on a donkey could conquer this castle.

    Chorus:

     

    Barry White, saved my life

     

    And if Barry White, saved your life

     

    Or got you back with your ex-wife

     

    Sing Barry White, Barry White, it’s alright.

     

     

     

    Now I was watching Banachek

     

    My mind’s eye

     

    right back when i was a seed

     

    and learning ’bout life

     

    At night they came together and gave me sight

     

    He said it’s better doing this, than sucking on a pipe

     

    Now when she came over, she brought the discus

     

    On and on, she promised to kick this

     

    EWF, stole my breath

     

    When he finished, there was nothing left

     

     

    Barry White, saved my life

     

    And if Barry White, saved your life

     

    Or got you back with your ex-wife

     

    Sing Barry White, Barry White, it’s alright.

     

     

    Over and over, ’til it’s ready

     

    Sing about it low and fat like J. P. Ghetti

     

    We make it happen, ass slappin’

     

    Sitting on the point to where you never catch us nappin’

     

    CO efino, he got the money grips

     

     

    No parking for Saturday night and the pips

     

    The pips know the hymns, they singing along

     

    Like knowing the verbs is gonna keep you from the twilight

     

    Ummmmm Do a little like that

     

     

    Barry White, Barry White, You know it’s alright

     

     

    Barry White, saved my life

     

    And if Barry White, saved your life

     

    Or got you back with your ex-wife

     

    Sing Barry White, Barry White, it’s alright.

     

     

    Barry White, saved my life

     

    And if Barry White, saved your life

     

    Or got you back with your ex-wife

     

    Sing Barry White, Barry White, it’s alright.

    I believe the good lord himself said in the Beatitudes,

     

     

    Blessed are they who hunger and thirst for righteousness , for they shall be satisfied..

     

     

    For all who have and do seek righteousness on behalf of Celtic FC, soon , very soon, we shall be satisfied..

     

     

    Our day has come…

    Ole WG will know this, but has anyone called Barry ever played for the Celts?

  5. Paul

     

     

    In earlier post you said that David Murray deserves credit for ending Rangers’ sectarian employment policy.

     

    Not so creditable when one considers that it was done, not for any ecumenical reason, but to stick it to Celtic and at the same time gain a degree respectability in Europe.

     

    Call me cynical, but I imagine that today, with your metaphorical tanks at the door, it would not be difficult to unearth members of the Larkhall Loyal tendency and others of their ilk, who consider that their present day woes are directly linked to what they see as the debilitating effects of the deceit ridden signing of Johnston

     

    Apologies for above seemingly endless sentence.

  6. An Fear Dearg on

    Doubtless the MSM will seek a quote from Celtic on tonight’s revelations. Perhaps we could allow our manager to deliver it? In just one sentence. One that not only sums up our position but also explains succinctly the key difference between our two clubs:

     

     

    “We don’t do cheating”.

  7. RaRaRasputin on

    quonno

     

     

    “Apologies for above seemingly endless sentence.”

     

     

    It was like Dickens all over again.

    But did I tell any lies? I think not.

  9. Does anyone think they’ll be showing tonights programme on the Big Screen at the Big Hoose?

  10. Thank the Lord work is over.

     

     

    Back in the ole days there would have been a power cut at one minute to eight tonight.

     

     

    The lost footage of the 7-1 game or the missing 4-2 coverage.

     

     

    Oh how times they are a changing.

    Holding back the years

     

    Thinking of the fear I’ve had so long

     

    When somebody hears

    Strangled by the wishes of pater

     

    Hoping for the arms of mater

    Holding back the years

     

    Chance for me to escape from all I’ve known

     

    Holding back the tears

     

    Cause nothing here has grown

     

    I’ve wasted all my tears

     

    Wasted all those years

     

    And nothing had the chance to be good

     

    Nothing ever could yeah

     

     

    I’ll keep holding on

     

    I’ll keep holding on

     

    I’ll keep holding on

     

    I’ll keep holding on

     

    So tight

     

     

    (Alright, oh now)

     

     

    Well I’ve wasted all my tears

     

    Wasted all of those years

     

    And nothing had the chance to be good

     

    Cause nothing ever could oh yeah

     

     

    I’ll keep holding on

     

    I’ll keep holding on

     

    I’ll keep holding on

     

    I’ll keep holding on

     

    Holding, holding, holding

     

     

    That’s all I have today

     

    It’s all I have to say

    SPL Statement

     

     

    An SPL spokesperson said: “The investigation into the EBT payments made by Rangers FC is being actively pursued on behalf of the SPL. All relevant documents, materials and information have been sought from Rangers FC and we look forward to receiving full cooperation from the club and its administrators in providing everything that it and they have access to and which is required for the investigation to be completed.”

  13. for my sins I ad to go to IKEA at Braehead last night.

     

     

    waiting in the car for Mrs H, flicking though the radio channels, and the bold DJ is talking to the CWC heros of the huns, who in turn are picking songs.

     

     

    I know its bad, but I listened anyway.

     

     

    They all came across as tubes. No suprises.

     

     

    Greig however, in his own style tried to crack a funny.

     

    Mr Waddell told me to take the Moscow star player out.

     

    Greig said, do you mean in this game or all games ?

     

     

    made me cringe.

  16. Mark \o/ McGhee's \o/ Eyeliner \o/ AKA Mark Guidi on

    A wee bit late in catching your post.

     

    Have previously posted here that Rangers’ fans simply cannot accept that the game was up when Bank of Scotland was taken over by the Halifax, and the old school tie and and a bit of knuckle crunching was no longer sufficient to have financial problems swept under the carpet.

    You’re mistaken about Greig’s reply to Herr Waddell

     

     

    “A movie and a meal or just a movie?”
