The Armadillo (犰狳) - Flanders & Swann[00:00:00]

I was taking compass bearings for the Ordinance Survey[00:00:40]

On an army training camp on Salisbury plain [00:00:45]

I had packed up my theodolite was calling it a day [00:00:48]

When I heard a voice that sang a sad refrain:[00:00:53]

'Oh my darling Armadillo [00:01:02]

Let me tell you of my love [00:01:05]

Listen to my Armadillo roundelay;[00:01:08]

Be my fellow on my pillow [00:01:13]

Underneath this weeping willow [00:01:16]

Be my darling Armadillo all the day '[00:01:19]

I was somewhat disconcerted by this curious affair [00:01:31]

For a single Armadillo you will own [00:01:35]

On Salisbury plain on summer is comparatively rare [00:01:38]

And a pair of them is practically unknown [00:01:43]

Drawn by that mellow solo [00:01:46]

There I followed on my bike [00:01:49]

To discover what these Armadillo[00:01:51]

Lovers would be like:[00:01:53]

'Oh my darling Armadillo [00:01:57]

How delightful it would be [00:02:01]

If for us those silver wedding bells would chime [00:02:03]

Let the orange blossoms billow [00:02:08]

You need only say 'I will'-oh [00:02:10]

Be my darling Armadillo all the time '[00:02:14]

Then I saw them in a hollow by a yellow muddy bank -[00:02:18]

An Armadillo singing to an armour-plated tank [00:02:23]

Should I tell him gaunt and rusting with the willow tree above [00:02:34]

This - abandoned on manoeuvres - is the object of your love [00:02:39]

I left him to his singing [00:02:50]

Cycled home without a pause [00:02:52]

Never tell a man the truth[00:02:55]

About the one that he adores [00:02:58]

On the breeze that follows sunset [00:03:04]

I could hear that sad refrain [00:03:07]

Singing willow willow willow down the way;[00:03:10]

And I seemed to hear it still Oh [00:03:15]

Vive L'amore vive l'Armadillo [00:03:19]

'Be my darling Armadillo all the day [00:03:22]

Be my darling Armadillo all the day '[00:03:28]
