We fight fot the Queen & country & we're back here again
OVER THE HILLS TO THE BATTLEFIELD 10 THOUSAND MARCHING MEN
We never say surrender butnow we must admit
SHOVE THE ROTTEN REGEMENT WE'RE OFF ON A MOONLIGHT FLIT
HO TALLY HO! THE BATTLE CRY OH! WE'RE OFF DOWN THE PUB
HO TALLY HO! A PINT & DECENT GRUB.
[Chorus:]
Down in the valley we can see
THE MEN MARCHING FOR VICTORY
We'll skip the blood on the battlefield
STUUF ALL THE BRAVERY... COZ WE QUIT THE CAVALRY.
We're shot injured & wounded, they call us men of war
IT'S TOO NOISY & DIRTY & WE CAN'T TAKE NO MORE
No bath or battlefield shower & people say we're brave
BUT NOW WE'RE GONNA DO A BUNK FOR A DECENT WASH N' SHAVE
HO TALLY HO!.... [Chorus]
SHOOT DON'T SHOOT This is not the life for me
SHOOT DON'T SHOOT It's not my cup o' tea.
GUITAR BIT... HO!... [Chorus]
The lyrics WE QUIT THE CAVALRY of TOY DOLLS is also present in the album Fat bob's feet (1991)
I Toy Dolls sono una band punk rock britannica formatasi a Sunderland nel 1979. Considerati uno dei gruppi più importanti del movimento UK punk, hanno raggiunto un'enorme popolarità negli anni '80 grazie al loro stile musicale energico e alle loro canzoni ironiche e spesso dissacranti. Il loro sound è caratterizzato da riff di chitarra veloci, batteria potente e testi che trattano temi come la vita quotidiana, l'ironia sociale e il punk rock stesso. Tra i brani più famosi ci sono "Nellie the Red"; "Dig That Groove"; "The Ballad of Captain Hook" e "I Wanna Be a Toy Boy". I Toy Dolls hanno collaborato con artisti come The Angelic Upstarts e hanno pubblicato numerosi album, tra cui "Dig That Groove" (1982) e "The Greatest Hits" (1985). La loro musica continua ad essere apprezzata da un pubblico fedele di appassionati di punk rock.
