Madness - Land Of Hope And Glory lyrics

rate me

Urrrrh

What's the time?

I was trying to get some sleep

Attention, urrraaah, bridges

Shorty, Nutty, Jack, Tommos motor

Uuuh, as you can see we've got a new recruit to this land of hope and glory

Hands behind you backs and legs apart and tell us all a story

Who me sir?

Yes, you ssssir!

I was an innocent man till someone grassed me up my plan

I'm earning some big a money

I hadn't mouthed it about, I am sure without doubt

I'd admit this land of hope and glory

Well you poor poor sod, here you're up sharp at six thirty

Cold shower down to breakfast, can't have you looking dirty

I suggest you eat what's given you even if it doesn't agree with you

It's all you will be getting up until twelve thirty

In between this time stay up in your room, you can dream about life

Get it

Two years of my teen age life given to this stand to attention life

Of land of hope and glory

I get so bored as time goes by, I think I'll do something dirty

I pick at the floor for juicy butts and I'll make myself a smoke

A bog roll and envelope stick it, falling down to pass my time

As the evening drags on, you can watch a little telly

Or dance with pans people with a little bit of belly

Pass yourself cold with a hint of yesterday

Don't complain learn the game and I'll get through another day

I was sitting there on the clock at long last is nine thirty

Off to bed straight to sleep as I leave this land of hope and glory

But only for a few seconds I'm in n ecstasy

Before the bell rings to let me know, sharp at six thirty

A the, a two, a six, a ta

Quiet, come on you lot, come on, lights out
