Bouncing Bomb Lyrics

Twisted Wheel Bouncing Bomb

Jimmy Lee, chip pan grease
Set fire to the school canteen
All the children had to leave
They missed school for a day
The teachers still got paid

Ivan the Terrible
Looks after some animals
Turkeys and highland cattle
He sells them for their meat
He’s a farmer on his feet

Sitting on the railway line
Scaring all the passers by
Stars and stripes flash in their eyes
Scared the kids off the bus
Driver gave no fuss

Lives his life so dangerously
Goes by the name of American Steve
Keeps some hammers up his sleeve
He’s a man you’d like to meet

But don’t give him no cheek, don’t give him no cheek

We wont forget your face, no we wont forget your face
Sit and watch the world all day
When you have done one, you’ll go like the bouncing
bomb
And you’ll bounce bounce bounce and you’ll free the dam
When you have to go
When you’re dead and gone
The bouncing bomb will be remembered


John the landlord takes no slack
He don’t care if you never come back
Sits down with a black bin bag
It’s full of CDs
He’ll give you one for free

Hazel sits down by the bar
Drinking beer and Advakat
Has to sneak out for her tar
She thinks no one knows she smokes
Little does she know, little do we know

We wont forget your face, no we wont forget your face
Sit and watch the world all day
When you have done one, you’ll go like the bouncing
bomb
And you’ll bounce bounce bounce and you’ll free the dam
When you have to go
When you’re dead and gone
The bouncing bomb will be remembered

Wendy walks the roads all day
Lost her house, she lost her way
Scarf, coat and anorak
She’s looking for her man
She knows she never can

Don’t forget about Steve the mean
Kept his money in a submarine
He’d been shaking money trees
He was an entrepreneur
But no one really cared
They just sit back and stare
