we're so sorry uncle albert

we're so sorry if we caused you any pain

we're so sorry uncle albert

but there's no one left at home 

and i believe i'm gonna rain



we're so sorry but we haven't heard a thing all day

we're so sorry uncle albert

but if anything should happen 

we'll be sure to give a ring



(we're so sorry uncle albert

but we haven't done a bloody thing all day

we're so sorry uncle albert

but the kettle's on the boil

and we're so easily called away)



hands across the water 

hands across the sky



admiral halsey notified me

he had to have a berth or he couldn't get to sea

i had another look & i had a cup of tea 

and a butter pie 

the butter wouldn't melt so i put it in the pie



hands across the water 

hands across the sky



live a little be a gypsy get around 

get your feet up off the ground

live a little get around
