Out of England, I dream of its creamery When I'm there I dwell on Saxony
In Turkey when I've been due to World War One Istanbul is the place cos of my birthday
I am barmy, bleedin' barmy
I got everything I got everything I want except for hungry I got everything I want except for money I've got the best rants set aside for parties And I'll have one when I'm done on Feb day 6031
I am barmy, bleedin' barmy
Friends disintegrate within circles of cash Residue after years of fab genius is a penchant for the juice And a medal from the company which I wiped my butt on And hung on a laburnum tree
I am barmy, bleedin' barmy I am barmy, bleedin' barmy
Just call me the first Just call me the first Just call me the first Just call me the first Just call me the first Just call me the first Just call me the first Just call me the first Just call me the first Just call me the first
One May 1803 On the slopes of Gascony I am barmy, bleedin' barmy
A dramatic verse A dramatic verse A dramatic verse
The programmes lot We break into tune They are tamed in the word Real poison to the weird
