The Armadillo - Frank Turner[00:00:00]
Written By:Frank Turner[00:00:00]
I was taking compass bearings for the Ordnance Survey[00:00:12]
On an army training camp on Salisbury plain[00:00:18]
I had packed up my theodolite[00:00:24]
I was calling it a day[00:00:27]
When I heard a voice that sang a sad refrain[00:00:30]
Oh my darling Armadillo[00:00:39]
Let me tell you of my love[00:00:42]
Listen to my Armadillo roundelay[00:00:45]
Be my fellow on my pillow[00:00:51]
Underneath this weeping willow[00:00:54]
Be my darling Armadillo all the day[00:00:58]
I was somewhat disconcerted by this curious affair[00:01:13]
For a single Armadillo you will own[00:01:19]
On Salisbury plain in summer is comparatively rare[00:01:25]
And a pair of them is practically unknown[00:01:31]
Drawn by that mellow solo[00:01:37]
There I followed on my bike[00:01:40]
To discover what these Armadillo[00:01:43]
Lovers would be like[00:01:47]
Oh my darling Armadillo[00:01:53]
How delightful it would be[00:01:57]
If for us those silver wedding bells would chime[00:02:00]
Let the orange blossoms billow[00:02:06]
You need only say I will-oh[00:02:09]
Be my darling Armadillo all the time[00:02:11]
Then I saw them in a hollow by a yellow muddy bank[00:02:27]
An Armadillo singing to an armour plated tank[00:02:34]
Should I tell him gaunt and rusting with the willow tree above[00:02:42]
This abandoned on manoeuvres is the object of your love[00:02:48]
I left him to his singing[00:02:56]
Cycled home without a pause[00:02:59]
Never tell a man the truth[00:03:03]
About the one that he adores[00:03:06]
On the breeze that follows sunset[00:03:11]
I could hear that sad refrain[00:03:14]
Singing willow willow willow down the way[00:03:17]
And I seemed to hear it still Oh[00:03:23]
Vive L'amore vive l'Armadillo[00:03:26]
Be my darling Armadillo all the day[00:03:29]
Be my darling Armadillo all the day[00:03:35]
