There Are Bad Times Just Around The Corner Lyrics - Robbie Williams

They're out of sorts in Sunderland 

And terribly cross in Kent 

They're down in Hull 

And the Isle of Mall 

Is seething with discontent 

They're nervous in Northumberland 

And Devon is down the drain 

They're filled with wrath on the Firth of Forth 

And sullen on Salisbury plain 

In Dublin they're depressed lads 

Maybe because they're Celts 

For Drake is hurrying West, lads 

And so is everyone else 

Hooray! Hooray! Hooray! 

Misery's here to stay

Ariana Grande Adds Her Own Verse To "Last Christmas" 

There are bad times just around the corner 

There are dark clouds hurtling through the sky 

And it's no good whining 

About a silver lining 

For we know from experience they won't roll by 

With a scowl and a frown we'll keep our peckers down 

And prepare for depression and doom and dread 

We're going to unpack our troubles from our old kit bag 

And wait until we drop down dead 

They're nervous in Nigeria 

They're all going crazy in Crete 

In Bucharest they're so depressed 

They're frightened to cross the streets 

In Maine the melancholia 

Is deeper than tongue can tell 

In Monaco all the croupiers know 

They haven't a hope in hell 

In far away Australia 

Each wallaby's well aware 

The world's a total failure 

Without any time to spare 

Photos 

Hooray! Hooray! Hooray! 

Suffering and dismay 

There are bad times just around the corner 

The horizon is gloomy as can be 

There are black birds over 

The greyish cliffs of Dover 

And the rats are preparing to leave the BBC 

We're unhappy breed and very bored indeed 

When reminded of something that Nelson said 

But while the press and the politicians nag, nag, nag 

We'll wait until we drop down dead 

There are bad times just around the corner 

And the outlook's absolutely vile 

There are home fires smoking from Windermere to Woking 

And we're not going to tighten our belt and 

Smile smile smile 

At the sound of the shots 

We'd just as soon as not 

Get a hot water bottle and go to bed 

We're going to unpack our troubles from our old kit bag 

And wait until we drop down dead 

A likely story 

Land of hope and glory 

Wait until we drop down dead
