When I Get Back To Blighty |
When I get back to Blighty |
I’m gonna kiss that shore |
Cause the further that I sail from thee |
I only love thee more |
When I get back to Blighty |
I may actually love you less |
Cause you may be, cause you may be pointing |
A little too far west |
Bus driver ain’t smokin' |
Or swiggin' from black can |
But whilst he was texting |
He nearly killed a man |
The bus queue all Twittered |
About the near miss |
And the rag 'n' bone man’s wearing |
High-vis |
And the rag 'n' bone man’s wearing |
High-vis |
See, the spirit of old Blighty |
Ain’t making deals on phone |
It’s drinking in a backstreet pub |
Till 12 midnight alone |
The real Clint Eastwood |
The real Lee Van Cleef |
Ended up in a bar in Hull |
Minus all of their teeth |
When I get back to Blighty |
I’ll be sure to kiss that coast |
Cause of all the rotten places |
I miss this rot the most |
When I get back to Blighty |
I won’t salute your queen |
I’ll salute the real people |
The history they’ve seen |
The phone ain’t working |
And the bus shelter’s smashed |
And all the 'Help for Harry’s |
Are bleeding for your cash |
Now the shock and awe |
Replaced pie and mash |
This country is out on the lash |
This country is out on the lash |
It’s 11 a. |
m |
It’s blue upon blue in the sky |
But everyone around agrees |
Oh, Phil Collins, Phil Collins must die |
A white T-shirt and faded jeans |
Just, just an ordinary guy |
But prisoner to his tax returns |
Oh, Phil Collins, Phil Collins must die |
Oh, he must die |
Oh yeah |
Ooh woah woah, woah |
He must die |
Ooh yeah |
Phil Collins must die |
He must die |
Oh yeah |
Woah woah, woah |
Yeah, die |
Ooh ooh woah, woah |
