"B.F.P.O." |

Army dreamers |

"Mammy's hero" |
|
"B.F.P.O." |
|
"Mammy's hero" |
|
Our little army boy |
|
Is coming home from B.F.P.O. |
|
We've a bunch of purple flowers |
|
To decorate a mammy's hero |
|
Mourning in the aerodrome |
|
The weather warmer, he is colder |
|
Four men in uniform |
|
To carry home my little soldier |
|
(What could he do? Should have been a rock star) |
|
But he didn't have the money for a guitar |
|
(What could he do? Should have been a politician) |
|
But he never had a proper education |
|
(What could he do? Should have been a father) |
|
But he never even made it to his twenties |
|
What a waste |
|
Army dreamers |
|
Ooh, what a waste of |
|
Army dreamers |
|
Tears o'er a tin box |
|
Oh, Jesus Christ, he wasn't to know |
|
Like a chicken with a fox |
|
He couldn't win the war with ego |
|
Give the kid the pick of pips |
|
And give him all your stripes and ribbons |
|
Now he's sitting in his hole |
|
He might as well have buttons and bows |
|
(What could he do? Should have been a rock star) |
|
But he didn't have the money for a guitar |
|
(What could he do? Should have been a politician) |
|
But he never had a proper education |
|
(What could he do? Should have been a father) |
|
But he never even made it to his twenties |
|
What a waste |
|
Army dreamers |
|
Ooh, what a waste of |
|
Army dreamers |
|
Ooh, what a waste of all that |
|
Army dreamers |
|
Army dreamers |
|
Army dreamers, oh |
|
Did n, did n, did n, dum |
|
(B.F.P.O.) |
|
(Army dreamers) |
|
Did n, did n, did n, dum |
|
(Mammy's hero) |
|
Did n, did n, did n, dum |
|
(B.F.P.O.) |
|
(Army dreamers) |
|
Did n, did n, did n, dum |
|
(Mammy's hero) |
|
(B.F.P.O.) |
|
No harm heroes |
|
(Mammy's hero) |
|
(B.F.P.O.) |
|
Army dreamers |

(Mammy's hero) |
