"Can you tell me where my country lies?" |
|
Cried the unifaun to his true love's eyes |
|
"It lies with me", cried the Queen of Maybe |
|
For her merchandise, he traded in his prize |
|
"Paper late", cried a voice in the crowd |
|
"Old man dies" the note he left was signed 'Old Father Thames' |
|
It seems he's drowned |
|
Selling England by the pound |
|
Citizens of Hope and Glory |
|
Time goes by it's "the time of your life" |
|
Easy now, sit you down |
|
Chewing through the Wimpy dreams |
|
They eat without a sound |
|
Digesting England by the pound |
|
Young man says, "You are what you eat", eat well |
|
Old man says, "You are what you wear", wear well |
|
You know what you are, you don't give a damn |
|
Bursting your belt that is your homemade sham |
|
The Captain leads his dance right on through the night |
|
Join the dance |
|
Follow on! Till the Grail sun sets in the mold. |
|
Follow on! Till the gold is cold |
|
Dancing out with the moonlit knight |
|
Knights of the Green Shield stamp and shout |
|
There's a fat old lady outside the saloon |
|
Laying out the credit cards she plays Fortune |
|
The deck is uneven right from the start |
|
All of their hands are playing apart |
|
The Captain leads his dance right on through the night |
|
Join the dance |
|
Follow on! Till the Grail sun sets in the mold |
|
You're the show |
|
Off we go with, you play the hobbyhorse |
|
I'll play the fool, we'll tease the bull |
|
Ringing round and loud, loud and round |
|
Follow on! Till the Grail sun sets in the mold |
|
Follow on! Till the gold is cold |
|
Dancing out with the moonlit knight |
|
Knights of the Green Shield stamp and shout |
