Lyrics for Barmy

Out of England, I dream of its creamery When I'm there I dwell on Saxony. In Turkey when I've been due to World War I Istanbul is the place 'cos of my birthday. I am barmy Bleedin' barmy I got everything I got everything I want except for hungry I got everything I want except for money. I've got the best round set aside for parties They'll have one when I've gone In fact, they said so, good one. I am barmy Bleedin' barmy Friends disintegrate within circles of cash Residue after years of fab genius Is a pension for the jews And a medal from the company which I wiped my butt on And hung on a laburnum tree. I am barmy Bleedin' barmy I am barmy Bleedin' barmy Just call me the first (Repeat 10 times) I lay waiting hopefully on sloped grass green I am barmy, bleedin' barmy A dramatic verse (Repeat 3 times) The programs lot We break into tune Take and bring a word Ring a buzzer Take and bring a word (") A dramatic verse
