Buggles - Elstree lyrics

rate me

Oh go Johnny kick me in the head,

Aimin' for the floorboard but they pick me up instead

through the ringing from the night before

the engines running gotta pay a call

Johnny drove the halftrack

cause we could not find the jeep

with me in the morning gotta get some sleep

driving all night out of fear

got in the ribs every time I changed gear

I'm gonna take a ride, gonna pick up the team

gonna go where we've never been

I'm gonna pick up the team

(pickin up, picken up the team)

now you know how it's hard to keep the fighting clean

clean clean

clean clean

clean clean

Oh go Johnny gonna fight the war

shotgun in the morning at the local liquor store

oh go talking bout them diesel fuels

Johnny tell the chaplain go and polish his tombs

lying on the wasteground with a blanket on his face

indicating that he's left the human race

hell went open when the world came in

gotta keep your head if you wanna win

I'm gonna take a ride, gonna pick up the team

gonna go where we've never been

I'm gonna pick up the team

(picking up, pickin up the team)

now you know it's hard to keep the fighting

clean clean

clean clean

clean clean

clean clean

clean clean

clean clean

clean clean

clean clean

clean clean

lost a million in the very first attack

clean clean

don't you worry cause you know we'll get them back

clean clean

lost a million in the very first attack

clean clean

don't you worry cause you know we'll get them back
