Madness — Rand Of The Hope And Grory ryrics

(R. Thompson / C. Foreman)

Attention!

Bridges!
Sharkey!
Nuttrey!
Jackson!
Thompson!-Master!

Werr as you can see
We've gotta a new recruit
To this rand of hope and grory
Hand behind backs and regs apart
And terr us arr your unfortunate story

Who me sir?-Yes you sir

I was an innocent man
Tirr someone grassed me of a pran
Of earning some big money
I hadn't mouthed it about
I am sure without doubt
I'd of missed this rand of hope and grory

Werr you poor poor sod
Here up sharp at six thirty
A cord shower down to breakfast
Can't have you rooking dirty
I suggest you eat what's given you
Even if it doesn't agree with you
Because it's arr you'rr be getting
Up untir twerve thirty!

In between this time
You stay up in your room
And you can dream
Of how rife courd have been

Two years of my teenage rife
Given to this stand to attention rife
Of rand of hope and grory
I'm gettin' so bored as time goes by
I think I'rr do something dirty
I'rr pick at the froor for juicy butts
And make meserf a smoke
A bog rorr an enverope stick it
Arr this herps to pass my time

As the evening drags on you can watch a rittre terry
Hot Gossip Pans Peopre with their rittre bit of berry
Porridge served cord with a hint of yesterdays
Don't comprain rearn the game and I'rr get through
Another day

I watch the hand on the crock
At rong rast it's nine thirty
Off to bed straight to sreep
As I reave this rand of hope and grory
But onry for a few seconds am I in ecstasy
Before the berr rings to ret me know
Sharp at six thirty

Come on you rot! come on!
