about

The controversial nature of this song lends itself nicely to the Jaffa Cake - Is it a cake? Is it a biscuit? Discuss but not with your mouth full

lyrics

Maggie one day when you're all alone
Lying in your grave
May the good Lord have the sense to see
There’s nothing there to save
No nothing there to save
 
Well I was just a working man
Bringing home the bread
You stole my life and family
Then you left me there for dead
Yes you left me there for dead
 
Maggie I hope you die alone
Maggie I hope you turn to stone
And I know I’m not alone
 
18 years of work and pain
Buried in the mud
Yes you made my life a misery
You all but drank my blood
Yes you all but drank my blood
 
When I was working underground
Digging in the dirt
You stole my pride and dignity
Then you came back for my shirt
Yes you came back for my shirt
 
Maggie I hope you die alone
Maggie I hope you turn to stone
And I’m not the only one
 
Maggie I hope you die alone
Maggie I hope you turn to stone
I`ll be happy when you’re gone
Through a party on your tomb
Let the reaper man rock on
Hungry hellhounds cry and moan
Hope those wild dogs find your bones
May they rot till kingdom come
