| Sup up your beer and collect your fags
|
| There’s a row going on down near Slough
|
| Get out your mat and pray to the West
|
| I’ll get out mine and pray for myself
|
| Thought you were smart when you took them on
|
| But you didn’t take a peep in their artillery room
|
| All that rugby puts hairs on your chest
|
| What chance have you got against a tie and a crest?
|
| Hello-hurray, what a nice day
|
| For the Eton Rifles, Eton Rifles
|
| Hello-hurray, I hope rain stops play
|
| For the Eton Rifles, Eton Rifles
|
| Thought you were clever when you lit the fuse
|
| Tore down the House of Commons in your brand new shoes
|
| Composed a revolutionary symphony
|
| Then went to bed with a charming young thing
|
| Hello-hurray, cheers then, mate
|
| It’s the Eton Rifles, Eton Rifles
|
| Hello-hurray, an extremist scrape
|
| With the Eton Rifles, Eton Rifles
|
| What a catalyst you turned out to be
|
| Loaded the guns, then you run off home for your tea
|
| Left me standing like a guilty schoolboy
|
| What a catalyst you turned out to be
|
| Loaded the guns, then you run off home for your tea
|
| Left me standing like a naughty schoolboy
|
| We came out of it naturally the worst
|
| Beaten and bloody, and I was sick down my shirt
|
| We were no match for their untamed wit
|
| Though some of the lads said they’d be back next week
|
| Hello-hurray, it’s the price to pay
|
| To the Eton Rifles, Eton Rifles
|
| Hello-hurray, I’d prefer the plague
|
| To the Eton Rifles, Eton Rifles
|
| Hello-hurray, it’s the price to pay
|
| To the Eton Rifles, Eton Rifles
|
| Hello-hurray, I’d prefer the plague
|
| To the Eton Rifles, Eton Rifles
|
| Eton Rifles, Eton Rifles
|
| Eton Rifles, Eton Rifles |
