MALTA
I’ve come to live in Malta
I’ve been here just a year
It`s had its ups it`s had its downs
I`ve even shed a tear.
The traffic it does worry me
the way they drive their cars
but there`s lots of things that are very good
there are lots of pubs and bars!
But now they say the rent goes up
It gave me pause to falter
When I looked pained and then complained
they said `Well this is Malta!
I put my car in a garage
he said come back at two
when I went back he wasn’t there
and I didn`t know what to do.
I`ve been going back a week or more
I asked the man called Walter
I said where is my car he said
`My dear this is Malta.`
You have to chill and not up tight
take off your British halter
and if a new comer complains to me .. say
My dears this is Malta…
