Ahh Saturday nights around town with the lads or as it was more commonly known back then, "The Possee are out in full effect".
Much anticipated throughout the week Saturday night was THE night for hitting the town, drinking ale and finding a nest. There was a usual route to follow which always started in the Salty Club. From there down to The County, The Market, The Fleece, Astaires Wine Bar, The Crooked Spire and ending up in The Avenue. Some things could always be guaranteed on a Possee night out. Jonah and his future wife Claire would fall out, Daz would shout "get on this" at a group of birds who would usually respond by telling him to go away (but in not such polite terms), Bucko would get rat arsed on half a lager and The Charmer would be surrounded by admiring crowds of underage girls.
The night out would always finish at The Avenue, the hip and trendy boozer of the late 80's early 90's. It played the best music and had the best looking talent. Sadly it is now a Chinese Restaurant and is unlikely to ever reclaim its former glories.
The highlight of the Avenue would be Phil "Philthy" Smith taking over the DJ spot followed by The Charmer sneaking out the back door with some love struck 15yr old.
The Possee song is a tribute to the golden days of the Possee which were at the time of recording at their high point. Over the coming years the size of the Possee gradually diminished as members left to form new groups or became involved with long term nests. The days of the Possee are now firmly in the past with only The Charmer and Jonah regularly hitting the town of a Satdi Neet.
Looking back on the song now there are a couple of lines that really should have been written differently. For starters it wasn't Lawson that was to fat to fit through the door it was actually Andy "Bunny" Bunting and as for Dave Barker, well he wasn't even really a Possee member.
Despite these errors the Possee Song has stood the test of time well. Its upbeat guitar work ranking amongst Dobbas finest self penned tunes. Even Norberts vocals sound just right (not something that was often said). A true Fingolstones classic.

On a Saturday night The Possee meet at The Salty
And everyone says Foxys barnet is faulty
Jonesy's with missus but she won't suck his k**b
Says she don't like taste of s***k in her gob
Buckos barnets a nightmare and his schmutters p**s poor
And Lawsons so fat he can't fit through the door
Here comes Worty and he's seven foot two
He's nearly as big as Nessies meat and two
Richards and Shieldsy are the last to arrive
Dave Barkers in the bog having a sticky hand jive

Chorus
Oh Oh its the Possee
Yey Hey here they go
Oh No they've got no hope
Cos the women say no.

8.31 and they've missed Happy Hour
So they troop down to Market with their faces all sour
They get their ale and they sit on the stalls
And make crude jokes about Nessies big balls
Two gems walk past so Rob gives a shout
"Ay up duck, get your rat out"
They turn to each other and in unison say
"F**k off ball teeth, we'd rather be gay"

Chorus

So its up to Astaires for a bottle of wine
They're getting well p****d and they're feeling fine
Jonesy and missus have a flaming great row
She calls him a c**t and he calls her a cow
Rob lets off a fart and it doesn't half stink
And Lawson abuses a couple of chinks
"I hate you yellow bastards, your necks should be wrung"
And then he goes off for a special foo yung

Chorus

Now to The Avenue cos its nearly ten
And everyone’s talking like Bill and Ben
Everyone’s p****d up and out of their tree
So off they go to the bogs for a wee
Foxys found a bird and he's giving her some chat
She's either deaf or dumb or else she’s a t**t
"Ay Up" shouts Lee "Booga and Bills in"
Sod them c***s and get the f*****g Pils in

Chorus

Kicking out time the bouncer looks like King Kong
Smithys on the microphone giving us a song
Foxy leaves first with his new found wench
But she can't hear or speak and she smells like a tench
One by one the Possee stagger out
Every now and then they give an obscene shout
Nessie falls over and so does Worty
And Foxys round the back doing something dirty.

Chorus
