Yes, you ssssir! I was an innocent man till someone gra**ed 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 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 Cos It's all you're be getting up until twelve thirty In between this time stay up in your room, you can dream of life Good things 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 bu*ts and I'll make myself a smoke A bog roll and envelope stick it, all this helps to pa** 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 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
