Teary eyes at the window
Where did Mum and Dad go?
I wish someone would hurry up and come and get me
Gee I'm scared
The cat shot through, She saw the light and fled
Cracker night was a real big deal, when I was a little kid
They started lettin' them off after tea I ran inside and hid
And all the dogs from everywhere were underneath me bed
We all went down in our dressing gowns to see the big bonfire
Wide eyes watched the straw man burn on a mile-high pile of tyres
Hot as hell, big black smell and red hot rings of wire
Sky rockets zinging
Catherine wheels spinning
What a flamin' evening
Fire trucks were screaming
Smoky haze hangin' round for days
And Grandma's ears were ringing
Everynight after school draggin' bits of wood
Boxes and branches and rotten old fences
And mattresses were good
We even scrounged a vinyl lounge
And anything we could
