Come and Join the British Army

Lyrics

[Verse 1] When I was young, I used to be As fine a man as ever you'd see Anthe Prince of Wales, he said to me Come and join the British army [Chorus] Too-ra loo-ra loo-ra loo They're lookin' for monkeys up in the zoo And since when have I had a face like you? I'd join the British army [Verse 2] Sarah Comden baked a cake It's all for poor old Slattery's sake She threw meself into the lake Pretendin' I was balmy [Chorus] Too-ra loo-ra loo-ra loo I've made me mind up what to do Now I'll work me ticket home to you And **** the British army [Verse 3] Sergeant Heeley went away And his wife got in the family way And the only words that she could say Was blame the British army [Chorus] Too-ra loo-ra loo-ra loo Me curse upon the Labour blue That took me darlin' boy from me To join the British army [Verse 4] Corporal Sheen's a turn o' the 'bout Just give him a couple o' jars o' stout He'll bake the enemy with his mouth And save the British army [Chorus] Too-ra loo-ra loo-ra loo I've made me mind up what to do Now I'll work me ticket home to you And **** the British army
