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 chargebreath 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 chargebreathe 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..."



Chargei'm gonna hit you where it hurts

Chargeso 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!
