A Soldiers lamant. Inspired by a poen by an Anoymus poet work:OH! HAIKIRK. I think a Scottish soldier?


WHILE BACK IN RAMSGATE!

Back in Ramsgate no one gives a flying fook!
What I'm doing fooking hear!
Hear there's no bus - not even the fooking Loop Bus stops hear!
Days so fooking hot fry a fooking egg hear!
At night it's so fooking cold - freeze the brass balls off a monkey!
Back in Ramsgate no one gives a fook!
And theirs no fooking beer hear!
Not that back in Ramsgate - back there - they give a fook!

Shot at - shoot back - I'm still a fooking a live! Not that Ramsgate gives a fook!
I don't know if I have killed any one - not that I give a fook!
Bullts - ping- zing and thud close bye - expositions - mortars - and suck like!
IED's going of - killing - dismembering me mates
Not that Ramsgate gives a fook!

Why am I hear and not back in Ramsgate!
Gave up giving a fook why - long - long ago!

Hear giveing the local girls the eye over - not a good idea!
And not wona meet the army nurses - probably if I did - be as a casualty!
Not that Ramsgate would give a fook!
Well back in Ramsgate - no work - no proper jobs anyway!
Joining up seemed a good idea at the time!
Polertishans back in Ramsgate - talk a load of bollix! Taking lead from London
Thear again - London - don't give a fook for the likes of ME!
Mind you - not as if I give a fook - anyway!
Seen my shire of dead and dyeing theirs and ours - learned not to give a fook!
AS long as I get out of hear - a live and in one peace - I wont give a fook!
Those back in Ramsgate - can take a fooking flying fook!
It's all bollix - anyway!
