Just an idea for a chorus, is all.
One of my wife's llamas is called Sid and this popped into my head while I was giving him his grain ;D
I have no idea how much a quid is (apart from hearing it said on Coronation Street) or whether there is a real-life Sid out there who's story could fill the verses. But if anyone wants to develop this further lyrically, or musically I'd be thrilled to pieces to see it happen ;D ;D
(chorus)
Sinister Sid
Sinister Sid
Slip him a quid
Slip him a quid
Sinister Sid
Sinister Sid
Slip him a quid
You'll be glad you did!

Paul,
I think it should be about Sids family and friends? What are their names?
Ps a quid is a pound -£1.

You mean his llama family?
OK - there are three of them - Cinder, Cocoa, and Sal.
Sal and Sid are the males.
So if you slipped someone a quid I guess that would be like giving them what we call a toonie.
A toonie is a two dollar CAD coin. Our one dollar coin has a picture of a loon on it so it was called a Loonie and I guess the toonie was a natural adaptation of that. But I digress!
If either of you talented guys can use this feel free to do so.
Otherwise it will be relegated to the dustbin of my brain. ;D ;D

Maybe sinister Sid is one of those homeless chaps that predict aweful things that are about to happen :P like in the movies

yes - I like that - so a quid would be welcomed by such a fellow for "services rendered"

I hope you meant it like this
Sid is shady kind of guy
Turn your back and you will cry
Long his neck and devilish eyes
Walnut brain is filled with lies
But you still can be his friend
If thre’s someone to offend
Sid will gladly be your guy
And your nemesis will cry
(chorus)
Sinister Sid
Sinister Sid
Slip him a quid
Slip him a quid
Sinister Sid
Sinister Sid
Slip him a quid
You'll be glad you did!
Sid is treacherous kind of guy
You paid him quid but still you cry
Someone must have payed him too
And his nemesis is you
You can be his friend again
You know the drill to stop the pain
Sid once more will be your guy
And your enemies will cry
(chorus)
Sinister Sid
Sinister Sid
Slip him a quid
Slip him a quid
Sinister Sid
Sinister Sid
Slip him a quid
You'll be glad you did!
