Artois
Artois (French pronunciation: [aʁˈtwa]; adjective Artesian; Dutch: Artesië) is a region of northern France. Its territory has an area of around 4,000 km² and a population of about one million. Its principal cities are Arras (Dutch: Atrecht), Saint-Omer, Lens and Béthune.
Location
Artois occupies the interior of the Pas-de-Calais département, the western part of which constitutes the former Boulonnais. Artois roughly corresponds to the arrondissements of Arras, Béthune, Saint Omer, and Lens, and the eastern part of the arrondissement of Montreuil. It occupies the western end of the coalfield which stretches eastward through the neighbouring Nord département and across central Belgium.
History
Originally a feudal county itself, Artois was annexed by the county of Flanders. It came to France in 1180 as a dowry of a Flemish princess, Isabelle of Hainaut, and was again made a separate county in 1237 for Robert, a grandson of Isabelle. Through inheritance, Artois came under the rule of the dukes of Burgundy in 1384. At the death of the fourth duke, Charles the Bold, Artois was inherited by the Habsburgs and passed to the dynasty's Spanish line. After the religious revolts of 1566 in the Netherlands, Artois briefly entered the Dutch Revolt in 1576, participating in the Pacification of Ghent until it formed the Union of Atrecht in 1579.

Look mate I aint the fighting type
But I’ve had nine Stella’s so I’m likely to strike
So please walk away before it gets too messy
And we end up in a cell or a cracked jaw on our settee
Artois why do you have to do that
The second you’re consumed I’m a loon and I knew that
Artois how do u get me in that mode
I could have left trouble alone if I was sipping on a krone
Artois why do u have to be the cheapest
And surely that should mean that you should be the weakest
Artois
Artois, Artois, Artois
My plan was to get myself a class tart
Instead I’m down A and E due too Artois
Haha I’ve only got myself to blame
But its two pound for a Stella and that’s all I had in change
So it only costs a tenna for a night on the Stella’s with the fella’s
But it means one of us will get leathered
Or nicked, shift passed out in our piss
But fuck it we love it “here mate lend us a quid?”
Artois why do you have to do that
The second you’re consumed I’m a loon and I knew that
Artois why do u have to be the cheapest
And surely that should mean that you should be the weakest
Artois why do you have to do that
The second you’re consumed I’m a loon and I knew that
Artois why do u have to be the cheapest
And surely that should mean that you should be the weakest
Artois
What the fuck are you looking at?
Come here go on!
Eight pints now I’m ready for a hard spar
And I swear I’m getting a funny look of that fella in the carhartt
Oi! Oi! don’t make me take this to the car park
I’ll beat you to a pulp then open you up like a mars bar
So think on I only came here for a sing song
But my mood shifted now my fifteenth drinks gone
So fuck it! Let’s ruck it!
COME ON THEN! “Oi here mate pass me a bucket
Where the fuck am I?”
I didn’t mean to get so pissed and feel a need to swing my fists
But I was stelled up I was stelled up
I really didn’t mean to punch that bouncer in the mouth
But I was stelled up I was stelled up
I never planned this to happen, leaving town in a wagon
But I was stelled up I was stelled up
I never meant to tell that fed id wrap a bottle around his head
But I was stelled up I was stelled up
Artoi why do you have to do that
Because of you I’ve only got four knuckles left and a bruised back
Artoi why do u have to be the cheapest
And surely that should mean that you should be the weakest
Artois why do you have to do that
The second you’re consumed I’m a loon and I knew that
Artois why do u have to be the cheapest
And surely that should mean that you should be the weakest
