It's a Mistake

Jump down the shelters to get away

The boys are cocking up their guns

Tell us, general, is it party time?

If it is, can we all come?

Don't think that we don't know

Don't think that we're not trying

Don't think we move too slow

It's no use after crying

Saying it's a mistake

It's a mistake

It's a mistake

It's a mistake

After the laughter has died away

And all the boys have had their fun

No surface noise now, not much to say

They got the bad guys on the run

Don't try to say you're sorry

Don't say he drew his gun

They've gone and grabbed old Ronnie

He's not the only one

Saying it's a mistake

It's a mistake

It's a mistake

It's a mistake

Tell us, commander, what do you think?

'Cause we know that you love all that power

Is it on then, are we on the brink?

We wish you'd all throw in the towel

We'll not fade out too soon

Not in this finest hour

Whistle your favourite tune

We'll send a card, and flower

Saying it's a mistake

It's a mistake

It's a mistake

It's a mistake

It's a mistake (it's a mistake)

It's a mistake (it's a mistake)

It's a mistake (it's a mistake)

It's a mistake (it's a mistake)

It's a mistake (it's a mistake)

It's a mistake (it's a mistake)

It's a mistake (it's a mistake)

It's a mistake
