"i wandered lonely as a cloud
that floats on high o'er hill and vale.
when all at once i spied a dilf
a-shitting in a pail"

 

[EreManYaLittleDivvy]

There was a young man from Pelaw
Whee got in trouble with the law
He double dropped three cowies
Kidnapped his arn mar
Then taxed the Metty and crashed it into his arn jaw

 

[RestlessNatives]

This is one called 'Get off the Metro, now' that I performed a few years back.

 

[mini-x2]

Where's @tunstall birdman?

 

[I Told You I Was Ill]

Why,
Does the Tyne and Wear Metro,
Have hardly any stations on Wearside,
After more than 40 years.

 

[Dubai Si]

I went to Peterlee
But then couldn't buy my tea
I couldn't calculate
So had to bus and then was late

 

[Five-Quarter]

My journey
On the GNE
A metaphor for life
All that strife
It never got started
Am so disheartened
Strike strike
Buy a bike

Tonali likes a bet
The skunks are in a fret
Milan have sold a pup
I'm pleased they've fucked them up

 

[Five-Quarter]

Tonali likes a bet
The skunks are in a fret
Milan have sold a pup
I'm pleased they've fucked them up

Reminds me of the the poetry of the Fulwell End that.

Get into them, f-k them up

Can't remember the rest of the words

 

[RossTheNinja]

I walk to the metro
It's late again
"Metro apologizes"
Fuck this I'm going home

 

[Walter Ego]

North Shields, Meadow Well
Percy Main
Where the fuck you think I'm going
I'm going on the train

Percy Main, Howdon
Hadrian Road
I'm on the metty, metty, metro system
Thats the way it goes

Hadrian Road, Wallsend
Going to Byker
This is the bouncing lyrical striker

 

[derum]

Never been on the metro
but it's just another train
my mate's had a go
and he says he'll go again.

 

[Five-Quarter]

Ode to the metro

I came along
I wrote a song for you
And all the things you do
And it was called Yellow

 

[double maxim]

Just a small town girl
Livin' in a lonely world
She took the midnight train going anywhere
Just a city boy
Born and raised in South Hylton
He took the midnight train going anywhere

 

[derum]

second verse

Never been on the Metro
Tom has, with Lorraine.
He said that both were good
and he'd do them both again.

 

[PJH]

Clickity-clack, clickity-clack.
Away we go on the track.
Clickity-clack, clickity-clack.
Another station to our back.

Lines of green and yellow.
Rivers of Tyne and Wear.
Cities of New and Sun.
Connect away by train or plane.

Clickity-clack, clickity-clack.
What do other places lack?
Clickity-clack, clickity-clack.
The sound of the locals crack.

 

[SAFC1962]

If you've paid for your ticket clap your hands
If you've paid for your ticket clap your hands
If you've paid for your ticket
Paid for your ticket
Paid for your ticket clap your hands!

Carriage is silent!

 

[double maxim]

"Stand clear of the doors please"
Says the automated voice,
She doesn't really care about me,
She's not saying by choice,
It's just a lawsuit avoidance consideration,
where was she?
When I fell down the escalator in Central Station.
