(JACK)
Hear the air raid siren
And your heart begins to pound,
Fear consumes your being
In the shelter underground,Take it from me,
What's a war without frivolity? Fri-vol-i-ty!London was bombed a lot,
(COMPANY: Spoken)
"When?"(JACK)
During the war
As was my dear old dad...
Father was quite the sot,
(COMPANY: Spoken)
"When?"(JACK)
During the war,
And I was one soaked lad...Topsy-turvy, lost yer nervy
Rack and ruin, you're boo-hoo-in
Try some whisky, and get frisky,
Your home is rubble, have a double!We were both sad and glad,
(COMPANY: Spoken)
"When?"
(JACK)
During the war,
'cause we were bombed a lot!Willies, jitters, heebie-jeebies
Call it what you might,
Bit o' Betty Bourbon's all you need to chase the fright,
Planes fill the sky,
As you burp and wonder if your gonna die...Terror in the city, puts the panic in the street,
Keep your wits about you,
think to drink your whiskey neat,
Shout it with me,
(JACK: Spoken)
"Hello war!"
(COMPANY: Spoken)
"Hello"
(JACK: Spoken)
"So long sobriety!"
(JACK)
Be the bold one, hoist a cold one
Tame your ticker, with hard liquor
You're sedated, inebriated,
Life's a puzzler, be a guzzler!Lordy, how tanked we got,
(COMPANY: Spoken)
"When?"
(JACK)
During the war,
'cause we were bombed a...
(The music ends abruptly!)
(JACK: Spoken)
"Peter Buoy Wryder never wrote the
final chord to this number,
but due to our extensive research, we feel it would go something like
this..."
(JACK)
Lordy, how tanked we got,(COMPANY: Spoken)
"When?"
(JACK)
During the war,
'cause we - were - bombed - a - lot!
