Did I Feel A Fool

Now Saturday nights I go out on the town

With me eye out for women if there's any to be found

And though I say it myself there ain't no one around like me

Now I met this girl the other night

I said hang around with me and you'll be alright

And I'll be honoured if you'll let me take you home tonight

Trust me

Now I ain't one to boast but I can turn on the charm

Before I knew what happened she was there on me arm

So I said let's have a drink, I was made up as I could be

Now if it's alright with you she said I'll have a large gin

So I ordered her one up and got meself one in

But when I felt for me buns there was none in me bin

Trust me

Now if I'm honest with you did I feel a fool

I don't know how I ever managed to keep my cool

But I just pretended that nothing had happened at all

But did I feel a fool

Well I said to the governor chalk it up on the slate

And I'll pay you up tomorrow night I promise you mate

'Cause someone's nicked me wallet I ain't kidding mate

Believe me

Then I thought to meself I handled that well

He never sussed as far as I could tell

I just played it cool and said I'll run your home girl

Trust me

But her father was mad he was there at the gate

She said you better not come in 'cause he ain't off in a state

I said don't worry mate I can handle it just you see

I said oi dad here she is safe and sound

Just give me a minute to turn the car around

Then I run over a cat and knocked a lamp post down

Trust me

Now if I'm honest with you did I feel a fool

I don't know how I ever managed to keep my cool

But I just pretended that nothing had happened at all

But did I feel a fool

Now all that's past now with me father-in-law

And we got three kids running round the floor

And I'll tell you it's a fact we're as happy as we can be

Me wife says I love you but I don't know why

I says it's 'cause I'm just a cool kind of guy
