I Don't Want To Be A Soldier 1914 Parody2

Dr. Pitt-Payne in London UK - 27 Nov 2002

I don't want to join the army
I don't want to go to war
I'd rather hang around
Picadilly underground
Living off the earnings of a high born lady

Don't want a bayonet up me arsehole
Don't want me bollocks blown away
I'd rather live in England
In bonny, bonny, England
And fornicate me bloomin' life away,
gor blimey

Monday I touched her on the ankle
Tuesday I touched her on the knee
On Wednesday I confess
I lifted up her dress
Thursday I saw you know what

Friday I put me hand upon it
Saturday she gave me balls a tweak
(tweak! tweak!)
On Sunday after supper
I put the old boy up her
Now she earns me Forty bob a week,
gor blimey

I don't want to join the army
I don't want to go to war
I'd rather hang around
Picadilly underground
Living off the earnings of a high born lady

Call on the regimental army
Call on the navy and marines
Call on me mother,
Me sister and me brother
But for gawd's sake, don't call me!
