German soldiers helmet circa 1943 - Ian McNabb[00:00:00]

When I was just a young boy[00:00:15]

My mother said to me[00:00:18]

Would you like to come to town today[00:00:22]

And keep me company[00:00:26]

We walked around department stores[00:00:29]

She bought me lots of sweets[00:00:33]

She bought the things a family needs[00:00:37]

And bought herself a treat[00:00:41]

She asked me if I wanted anything at all[00:00:44]

As we walked outside a junk shop[00:00:52]

Just behind the old town hall[00:00:55]

So I looked into the window[00:00:59]

And displayed there to my glee[00:01:03]

Was a German Soldiers Helmet circa 1943[00:01:06]

I asked if I could have it[00:01:22]

And she looked horrified[00:01:25]

She must have thought about the war[00:01:29]

And all those who had died[00:01:33]

She said we'd ask my father[00:01:36]

And grabbed me by my hand[00:01:40]

So I went home to tell my Dad[00:01:44]

I knew he'd understand[00:01:48]

'Cos he fought in the desert[00:01:51]

It's what he had to do[00:01:55]

Imagine what it would be like[00:01:59]

If it were me or you[00:02:03]

He gave me ten pounds fifty[00:02:06]

The asking price you see[00:02:10]

For the German Soldiers Helmet circa 1943[00:02:14]

The years passed so quickly[00:02:28]

And nothing is the same[00:02:32]

And I've moved home so many times[00:02:36]

But noone is to blame[00:02:40]

I never thought about it[00:02:44]

I never had the time[00:02:47]

Playing this crazy rock and roll[00:02:51]

I nearly lost my mind[00:02:55]

But just the other evening[00:02:58]

Beneath the cellar stairs[00:03:02]

I banged my knee on something hard[00:03:06]

I gave a little curse[00:03:10]

I shone my torch into the dark[00:03:13]

And guess what I did see[00:03:17]

A German Soldiers Helmet circa 1943[00:03:23]

Thanks Mum and Dad for buying me[00:03:30]

This piece of history[00:03:33]
