Lyrics

Should the President-elect

Contemplating the actions of the President-elect

Elect to beckon in his debts

Considering the decision to acknowledge or settle his debts

Should the Westminster Gazette

Questioning if the Westminster Gazette should focus on trivial matters like collecting a single cigarette

Collect a single cigarette

Imagining a small action causing significant consequences

Sparks a monumental blaze

Describing the impact of a small event leading to a major crisis

That works the fire brigade for days

Highlighting the prolonged efforts of the fire brigade to handle the blaze

Takes the Chinatown in hand

Addressing the idea of taking control of Chinatown

Covers Theatreland in sand

Imagining covering Theatreland with sand, possibly symbolizing an attempt to bury or protect it

Crimson buckets in the wings

Depicting the image of buckets filled with crimson (red) liquid in the wings, suggesting a theatrical or dramatic setting


I will likely be here

Expressing the likelihood of being present in the face of uncertain events

I will likely be here

-

I will likely be here

-

Thinking it down

Reflecting on these scenarios and contemplating them


If the gales blow in from Wales

Contingency involving strong winds affecting Scotland

And raise the Scotsman off its rails

Imagining a scenario where external factors disrupt normalcy, like Nadal affecting a canal

Or if Rafael Nadal diverts the K&A canal

Describing the consequences, such as flooding Salisbury Plain

Floods the flats of Salisbury Plain

Depicting a fictional scenario where the Armada sails and threatens the town

And the Armada sails from Spain

Expressing the urgency for someone to save the day in such crises

Trains its cannons on the town

-

And we are all condemned to drown

-

If someone doesn't save the day

Highlighting the importance of intervention to prevent catastrophe


I will likely be here

Reiterating the likelihood of being present in times of need

I will likely be here

-

I will likely be here

-

Thinking it down

Reflecting on these potential crises and engaging in contemplation


When the gutters run with butter

Imagining an unusual scenario where gutters run with butter from car fenders

From the fenders of the cars

Describing a peculiar situation involving the streets

When the stratosphere is clear

Reflecting on a clear stratosphere to emphasize the uniqueness of the imagined situation

To hear the caterwauling stars

-

You will know just where to find me

Providing a marker to locate the speaker during these bizarre events

By the sign above my door

Signifying a change in the speaker's life, implying a cessation of certain activities

Says the man who used to change

-

Will not be changing anymore

-

So if you ever need to talk

Expressing readiness to listen or converse if needed


I will likely be here

Reiterating the likelihood of being available for conversation

I will likely be here

-

I will likely be here

-

Thinking it down

Reflecting on potential situations and engaging in contemplation
