Lazy Sunday Lyrics
Correction 1: They doing me crust in
should be They're doin' me crust in
British slang for "They are sending me crazy"
Correction 2:
To sing in your party
should be
To sing in ya karzi
British slang for toilet, in this case located in the back yard where one could sit and gaze at the moon.
To sing in your party
Commenters are right, but I think its 'sit on your kharzi' - and spelt with an 'h'. Indian, origianlly I think, brought back from the Empire.

The words "Gore Blimey" or "Gor Blimey" is a phrase originally used by Londoners, generally in the East End and is a contraction of the phrase "God blind me" which is an oath. As an example "God blind me if I'm telling a lie." I also thought the lyrics were "'ow's your Bert's lumbago?" I must admit that no matter how often I heard that song when playing pool in my mis-spent youth during the '70s, I didn't realise it said "To sing in ya Karzi."

I'm pretty damn sure the words are
"To sing in your karzi while you flush out the moon"
If you listen closely, you can hear the outside loo being flushed just after Steve sings it.
Hehe I never looked at the lyrics before - always thought it was 'How's your BIRD'S lumbago' which I thought was weird - was I right or wrong?
I always thought it was "How's your Bert's lumbago" which is a combination of what is posted and Sunnyhill's version
I always thought it was "So sit in your khazi while you suss out the moon" - i.e. sit on the toilet and try and work out what the moon's all about. But I concede it may be "So sing in your khazi".
A lovely, wild, rambunctious song about nothing and everything. Ca't help but wiggle your eyebrows when you sing along, I find :)
