We're so sorry Uncle Albert

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 sorry Uncle Albert
But the kettle's on the boil and we're so eas'ly called away

Admiral Halsey notified me
   Am                          C
He had to have a berth or he couldn't get to sea
  Am                      C                    Em
I had another look and I had a cup of tea and butter-pie
(The butter wouldn't melt so I put it in the pie)

Live a little, be a gypsy, get around

Get your feet up off the ground
