El Publicano Gullican

The Sharks

Publican Gullican

Publican Gullican lived by the sea
He was happy and jolly as landlords should be
His pub had a lounge with a colour TV
Where his patrons could sit and drink comfortably

Oh he lived his life
happily with his wife
Confident he'd always be
a publican down by the sea

Publican Gullican one day in May
opened his pub on a bank holiday
Polished his horse-brasses shiny and new
then through the door came a scooter-head crew

'Hey fat man give us some beer'
'We don't serve your sort in here'
'Serve us or see what you'll get
We'll smash your colour TV set'

Oh he didn't think twice
He reached down for a knife
Meant to scare them from his bar
Didn't mean to go this far

Publican Gullican lives by the sea
on the Isle of Wight
at Her Majesty's courtesy
Misses his home and his colour TV
Dreams of the time he was free

Oh Publican Gullican what have you done?

El Publicano Gullican

El Publicano Gullican vivía junto al mar
Era feliz y alegre como los dueños de posadas deberían ser
Su pub tenía un salón con un televisor a color
Donde sus clientes podían sentarse y beber cómodamente

Oh vivía su vida
felizmente con su esposa
Seguro de que siempre sería
un publicano junto al mar

El Publicano Gullican un día de mayo
abrió su pub en un día festivo
Pulía sus placas de caballo brillantes y nuevas
entonces por la puerta entró un grupo de motociclistas

'Oye gordo, danos cerveza'
'No servimos a tu tipo aquí'
'Sírvannos o verán lo que obtendrán'
'Destrozaremos tu televisor a color'

Oh no lo pensó dos veces
Bajó por un cuchillo
Pensando asustarlos de su bar
No quiso llegar tan lejos

El Publicano Gullican vive junto al mar
en la Isla de Wight
por cortesía de Su Majestad
Extraña su hogar y su televisor a color
Sueña con el tiempo en que era libre

Oh Publicano Gullican ¿qué has hecho?
