Lyrics

Urrrrh What's the time? I was trying to get some sleep Attention, urrraaah, Bridges Sharkey, Nutley, Jackson, Thompson, Master Well, as you can see we've got a new recruit to this land of hope and glory Hands behind backs and legs apart and tell us all of your unfortunate story Who me sir? Yes, you ssssir! I was an innocent man 'til someone grassed me of a plan Of earning some big a money If I hadn't mouthed it about, I am sure without doubt I'd 'ave missed this land of hope and glory Well, you poor poor sod, here you're up sharp at 6:30 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 'Cause it's all you'll be getting up until 12:30 In between this time stay up in your room, you can dream of life Good ole things Two years of my teenage 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, all this helps to pass my time As the evening drags on, you can watch a little telly Hot gossip pans people with a little bit of belly A hot drink served cold with the heat of yesterday's Don't complain learn the game and I'll get through another day I watch the second hand on the clock at long last is 9:30 Off to bed straight to sleep as I leave this land of hope and glory But only for a few seconds I'm in ecstasy Before the bell rings to let me know, sharp at 6:30 A the, a two, a six, a ta Quiet, come on you lot, come on, lights out
