Sargeant Schwearing Wore A Big Moustache
And Wore It With Panache
But Alas this Man Was Too Bitter
And Rumoured a Distant Cousin Of Hitler!
He Would Come To My Bar
In A Volkswagon Beetle
He Would Pull Up A Pew
And a Regular Diatribe He Would Spew
I Will Now Recount The Story
In All Of Its Glory
Sargeant Schwaring Why Are You Swearing?
Is It Your Crap Job Or Nagging Wife
Or Too Tight Underwear You’re Wearing?
Or Is It The Weather, Or That Wild Dog
That On Your Paper-Round is Appearing?
Is It The Snob Next Door
Who Laughs Coz You’re Poor
Yet Cannot Afford To Fix His Own Door?
Is It The Politician Who Taxes You Silly
And Gives It To the Truely Rich
Or Is It Your Supervisor Who Of You Loves To Snitch?
Sargeant Scwearing Your Life’s A Hard One
With Virtually No Fun
Your Destiny’s Full Of Road-Blocks
And You Chew On Last Weeks Hog Hocks
You Live In Men’s Hostel Accommodation
With The Spirits Of Damnation
But Surely Soon Your Luck Will Turn
And Of Those Starry Nights You Yearn
You Will Ride Into the Sun
While Holding a Sugary Bun
Your Wife Will No Longer Nagg
Having been “Surgically Reverse De-Hagged”
The Money Will Flow
You’ll Be Revered For Things You Don’t Know
Men Will March In Your Honour
Unwitting That You’ve Made Them All A Gone-er
Oh My!, Sargeant Schwearing!, The Silver Lining Is Here!
So Now Celebrate It, & Swig Your German Beer!
That’s It Swig the Stein Down
All Over Your Army Fatigue Gown!
The Govt Spy Was Watching & Waiting
While You Were Gesticulating
He Pounced, You Flounced & He Said
“You’ve Had Too Much Drink
You’re Arrested, Arrested Big!
I’m Throwing You In The Clink!”
And now Your Oasis Has Turned to Dust
You Snatched Defeat From Certain Victory
Hmmm….It Kinda Of Reminds Me Of Distant History
Of This “Unfair Punishment”, You’ve Turned Three Shades Of Blue
And Now You Rot In Prison & Do Angrily Stew
Sargeant Schwearing I Can Only Assume
Is This Belated Payback For World War Two?
What’s That Sargeant? I Stabbed You In The Sack?
By Serving That Bavarian Beer You Happily Through Back?
Oh Schwearing, Of You, I Am Not A Believer
I Merely Pull Beers At The ‘Bertrunkener Biber’ – The Drunken Beaver
Oh Schwearing – My Dear Fellow
I’ll Ignore Your Shameful Bellow
Your Letters Get No Better
Of Prison Shackles Your Words Unfetter
But Sargeant Schwearing – You Lost Fair & Square
You Wanted The Beer – That Tasty Brew
Now I Suggest You Go Fester & Plan
The Outbreak Of World War Three,
My Little Man.
But I admit – You Do Entertain Us Very Mutch
In Your Nightly Performance Of Verbal Slush
You Might Even Call It
“The Drunken Everyman’s Beer Hall Putsch”.
