The class is on a school trip, the journey’s taking long
Am Em Am B
It’s time for refreshments, but something has gone wrong!
Em Am Em
The teacher’s got a cardboard box with drinks in
Am Bb B7
Is that what I think it is??
[Chorus]
Em
Calypso, Calypso
Am
Get that filthy drink away from me
B7
Calypso, Calypso
Em
Water, sugar and E163
Calypso, Calypso
Am
Poison in a carton, child abuse
B7
Calypso, Calypso
Em Am Em
Curiously orange plastic juice
[Verse 2]
Em B Em
The cup is corrugated, the straw is red and thin
Am B
But which is the sharp end so I can put it in?
Em Am Em
I guess the first taste isn’t quite so bad
Am Bb B7
But plastic waits at the end
[Chorus]
Em
Calypso, Calypso
Am
Get that filthy drink away from me
B7
Calypso, Calypso
Em
Water, sugar and E163
Calypso, Calypso
Am
Poison in a carton, child abuse
B7
Calypso, Calypso
Em Am Em
Curiously orange plastic juice

Calypso, Calypso
A#m
Made in Hemel Hempstead, did you know?
C7
Calypso, Calypso
Fm
Not to be confused with “Calippo”
Calypso, Calypso
A#m
Shouldn’t be allowed in schools today
C7
Calypso, Calypso
Fm
Come to think of it, do they still even make it anyway?
