Lyrics

[Part I: Uncle Albert] [Verse 1] We're so sorry, Uncle Albert We're so sorry if we caused you any pain We're so sorry, Uncle Albert But there's no one left at home And I believe I'm gonna rain [Instrumental Bridge] [Verse 2] We're so sorry, but we haven't heard a thing all day We're so sorry, Uncle Albert But if anything should happen We'll be sure to give a ring [Instrumental Bridge] [Verse 3] We're so sorry, Uncle Albert But we haven't done a bloody thing all day We're so sorry, Uncle Albert But the kettle's on the boil And we're so easily called away [Part II: Admiral Halsey] [Chorus] Hands across the water (Water) Heads across the sky Hands across the water (Water) Heads across the sky [Verse 1] Admiral Halsey notified me He had to have a berth or he couldn't get to sea I had another look and I had a cup of tea And a butter pie (A butter pie?) (The butter wouldn't melt, so I put it in the pie, alright?) [Chorus] Hands across the water (Water) Heads across the sky Hands across the water (Water) Heads across the sky [Bridge] Live a little, be a gypsy, get around (Get around) Get your feet up off the ground Live a little, get around Live a little, be a gypsy, get around (Get around) Get your feet up off the ground Live a little, get around [Flugelhorn Solo] [Chorus] Hands across the water (Water) Heads across the sky Hands across the water (Water) Heads across the sky
