| The sky was so clear, it was a beautiful day
|
| The King did arrive in such a glamorous way
|
| Women ravin' wavin' hands in the air, oh yea
|
| Men were cheerin', children started to stare
|
| The King told the crowd he was the luckiest guy
|
| He’d finally come through to the European side
|
| A navy band got ready and started to play, he-hey
|
| Another song from those mighty glorious days
|
| Oh boy, did he look good in green!
|
| Oh boy, did he did he look good in green!
|
| Oh boy!
|
| This sunny afternoon
|
| He sleeps his Saturday away
|
| Locked in his room
|
| These were the days of peace and joy in our hearts
|
| No Major Tom was to be seen in the charts
|
| No Sgt Pepper was playin' around in your home, oh no
|
| Just Colonel Parker countin' the money alone
|
| But boy, did he look good in green!
|
| Oh boy, did he did he look good in green!
|
| Oh boy!
|
| This sunny afternoon
|
| He sleeps his Saturday away
|
| Locked in his room
|
| And boy, he don’t have many friends
|
| But one is good enough to know
|
| When you’re alone
|
| So alone
|
| The King told the crowd he was a fortunate guy
|
| He thanked them and smiled and made all the girls break down and cry
|
| Cos they all know that this was the bitter end, oh yea
|
| That things would never be quite the same again
|
| Oh boy, did he look good in green!
|
| Oh boy, did he did he look good in green!
|
| Oh boy!
|
| This sunny afternoon
|
| He sleeps his Saturday away
|
| Locked in his room
|
| And boy, he don’t have many friends
|
| But one is all you need to know
|
| When you’re alone
|
| So alone |
