ALL of us play our very best game
Any other time.
Golf or billiards, its all the same
Any other time.
Lose a match and you always say,
Just my luck! I was off to-day!
I could have beaten him quite half-way
Any other time!
After a fiver you ought to go
Any other time.
Every man that you ask says Oh,
Any other time.
Lend you a fiver! Id lend you two,
But Im overdrawn and my bills are due,
Wish youd ask menow, mind you do
Any other time!
Fellows will ask you out to dine
Any other time.
Not to-night, for were twenty-nine
Any other time.
Not to-morrow, for cooks on strike,
Not next day, Ill be out on the bike
Just drop in whenever you like
Any other time!
Seasick passengers like the sea
Any other time.
Something . . I ate . . disagreed . . with me!
Any other time
Ocean-travlling is . . simply bliss,
Must be my . . liver . . has gone amiss . .
Why, I would . . laugh . . at a sea . . like this
Any other time.
Most of us mean to be better men
Any other time:
Regular upright characters then
Any other time.
Yet somehow as the years go by
Still we gamble and drink and lie,
When it comes to the last well want to die
Any other time!
