Ladysmith wants you forthwith to come to her relief
Burn your briefs you leave for france tonight
Carefully cut the straps of the booby-traps and set the captives free
But don’t shoot ‘til you see her big blue eyes
Then sound the charge¡ºbreath your final breath
And charge into the valley of death
Cannon to the left and cannon to the right
They’ll go bang bang bang all night
We’ll fight them on the beaches
Yes, we’ll fill ‘em full of lead
Fighting naked in the open air
We’ll fight them in the kitchen, in the bathroom in the garden shed
Fighting the good fight any-fighting-where
So sound the charge¡ºbreathe your final breath
And charge into the valley of death
Cannon to the left and cannon to the right
They’ll go bang bang bang all night
There’ll be a cannon to the left and cannon to the right
They’ll go bang bang bang bang bang bang bang all night…
"baby baby, i love the way you talk sense to me
Especially when you say ‘neil, you got love’
I hear what you’re saying…
I have in my hand a piece of paper that says
"let’s make lurrve, not this phoney war-thang"
We goin’ over the top –
But you’re so sexy when you’re angry, honey-chile"
"roamin’ around in no man’s land, gettin’ caught in your barbed wire
Baby baby, gonna set your village on fire…"
Charge¡ºi’m gonna hit you where it hurts
Charge¡ºso sound the red alert!
There’ll be a cannon to the left…
…and a cannon to the right…
(the hills are alive with the sound of)
Bang bang bang bang bang
Bang bang bang bang bang
Bang bang bang bang bang
All night!
The way you love
Have you got a name for it
Cause I don’t understand it
The language is an annoying necessity
And I depend on all the regular things
Got a list tattooed on my memory
Of how our tryst should unfold
I’m falling from the opposite
What good is it
Fight the map with no key attached
My heart’s enlarged and I charge
What do you say
To a dream that won’t go away
Cause I don’t know if I can stand it
Forever isn’t something you want to be
And I rely on familiar things
Seven days all have special meanings
But you just call it a week
I’m falling from the opposite
What good is it
Fight the map with no key attached
My heart’s enlarged and I charge
I’m falling from the opposite
What good is it
Fight the map with no key attached
My heart’s enlarged and I charge
The night is young
And the moon is a mother to both of us
We both understand this
Marriage is an old and tired religion
And I love all the traditional things
Domestic bliss and all that shit
Confusion is a definite direction
I’m falling from the opposite
What good is it
Fight the map with no key attached
My heart’s enlarged and I charge
I’m falling from the opposite
What good is it
Fight the map with no key attached
My heart’s enlarged and I charge
I’m falling from the opposite
What good is it
Fight the map with no key attached
My heart’s enlarged and I charge
