Uncle Albert / Admiral Halsey lyrics

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 (water)

Heads across the sky

Hands across the water (water)

Heads across the sky

Admiral Halsey notified me

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

I had another look and I had a cup of tea and a butter pie

"Butter pie?"

"The butter wouldn't melt, so I put it in the pie"

"Oh well, alright"

Hands across the water (water)

Heads across the sky

Hands across the water (water)

Heads across the sky

Live a little, be a gypsy, get around (get around)

Get your feet up off the ground

Live a little, get around

Live a little, be a gypsy, get around (get around)

Get your feet up off the ground

Live a little, get around

Hands across the water (water)

Heads across the sky

Hands across the water (water)

Heads across the sky
