He drinks a little, what he always does before getting on the bicycle

Naturally he gets arrested and they take him to the jail in Nyírpilis

Many cheap buttons are sent flying by the sizeable stomach

Now it's time that a doctor sets him up with a fancy coffin

He's gulping down wine greedily from an ancient barrel

Now it's time that a doctor sets him up with a fancy coffin
