I've seen things you people wouldn't believe.
Barbeques on fire by the chalets past the castle headland
I watched the gift shops glitter in the darkness off the Newborough gate
All these moments will be lost in time, like icecream on the beach
Time for tea.

As far as anyone can work out all the people involved left town before
anything was signed.

So they can't actually tie anything criminal to anyone except for a couple
of rather obvious patseys.
