It's just around the corner in the English Civil War

It was still at the stage of clubs and fists, hurrah, tala         (embarque)
When that well-known face got beaten to bits, hurrah, tala
Your face was blue in the light of the screen
As we watched the speech of an animal scream
The new party army was marching right over our heads - alright

Couplet muet  w/ solo

There you are, ha ha, I told you so, tala, hurrah
Says everybody that we know, hurrah, tala
But who hid a radio under the stairs
And who got caught out on their unawares?
When that new party army came marching right up the stairs

When Johnny comes marching home again, hurrah, tala
Nobody understands it can happen again, hurrah, tala
The sun is shining and the kids are shouting loud 
But you gotta know it's shining through a crack in the cloud
The shadows keep falling when Johnny comes marching home

Alright Johnny
Okay Johnny
Okay John go hooome
Hooome, home home home
Guess who's catching a plain when Johnny comes running home        (ral., reste) \
