When the Sergeant Major's on Parade - Peter Dawson[00:00:00]
When the sun is shining bright[00:00:08]
Dispelling all the dews of night[00:00:09]
With Sam Browne belt and buttons bright[00:00:11]
Behold the Sergeant Major[00:00:14]
Batman makes my army bed[00:00:18]
And soon my boots a luster shed[00:00:20]
He turns me out from foot to head[00:00:22]
A dapper Sergeant Major[00:00:24]
Then woe to them that meet my eye[00:00:29]
They never do they turn and fly[00:00:34]
When I'm here on parade in the square[00:00:40]
How the folks passing by turn and stare[00:00:44]
For they say this beats the band[00:00:48]
The way he handles the men is grand[00:00:51]
When I shout[00:00:55]
Birds fly out[00:00:56]
Daisies fade[00:00:57]
I've a way that must be obeyed[00:00:59]
NCOs say I bite[00:01:02]
While recruits die of fright[00:01:04]
When the Sergeant Major's on parade[00:01:06]
Eyes as keen as sparrow hawk[00:01:18]
Or like a lobster on a stalk[00:01:19]
No nudge or wink or smile or talk[00:01:21]
Escapes the Sergeant Major[00:01:24]
True I've got a fearful name[00:01:28]
And folk say it's a crying shame[00:01:30]
They'd like to kill or halt or maim[00:01:32]
That fiend the Sergeant Major[00:01:35]
But that's the proper Army style[00:01:39]
And now and then they see me smile[00:01:44]
When I'm here on parade in the square[00:01:51]
How the folk passing by turn and stare[00:01:55]
For they say this beats the band[00:01:59]
The way he handles the men is grand[00:02:02]
When I shout[00:02:06]
Birds fly out[00:02:07]
Daisies fade[00:02:08]
I've a way that must be obeyed[00:02:10]
NCOs say I bite[00:02:14]
While recruits die of fright[00:02:16]
When the Sergeant Major's on parade[00:02:17]
Pick 'em up Pick 'em up there[00:02:22]
What the Where the Who[00:02:23]
Pick 'em up Pick 'em up there[00:02:26]
Coal fatigue for you[00:02:27]
Left Left Left[00:02:29]
Is that the way we won Waterloo[00:02:32]
Come along come along there[00:02:36]
Jump to it my lad[00:02:38]
If you don't you'll hear me call[00:02:40]
A spade a spade[00:02:41]
Left Left Party shun[00:02:43]
The Sergeant Major's on parade[00:02:48]
