lyrics

Through his monocle he spies
Coronation as his prize
Quite the dandy in their eyes
He’ll save nation as he cries
‘I’m only waiting for the nostrums to arrive’
Anchored patiently since 1969

Aboard the good ship Tally Ho
There are faces you all know
Doffing caps and holding true
We’ll make a soldier boy of you
Get your tickets to the medication show
They’re showing Wellington and now it’s off we go

All aboard, take me in
To a golden destination
Let the carnival begin
All aboard, back to the days of black & white,
take me in take me in.
Ruling the waves in black & white

Waterloo, El Alamein
Flapper dresses & champagne
Penny farthings in the rain
I told you you’d be great again
Though you’re waiting for the doctor to arrive
You know it’s great to have the hangman back on side

All aboard, take me in
It’s a golden destination
It’s a parliament of sin
All aboard - back to the days of black & white,
take me in take me in.
Ruling the waves in black & white
Now all the dandies in the land
Hypnotise you with their slight of hand
Off shore pirates rule the waves
And they’re only a heartbeat away
From the land, the land of black & white

Burt & Ernie wax the tache
King & country down the hatch
Hanky panky at the Ritz
Two fat ladies off their tits
They’re only waiting for more cocktails to arrive
They haven’t laughed so much since 1925

All aboard, take me in
It’s a golden destination
Let the carnival begin
All aboard, back to the days of black & white,
take me in take me in.
They’re only a heartbeat away
