On the Bombsite Lyrics

On the bomb site
You be mum and I'll be dad
We'll be sad
Waiting for the boat
that sails down Garden street
Plimsoled feet
Those were days of wooden swords
When dragons would appear
I was Launcelot
and you were Guinevere
Later on Geronimo would capture Dave
(Heroes never die)
He'd be saved
by the soldiers
in the sands at Alamein
(We fought a war in time for tea)

Another game.
Those were the days of wooden swords
When dragons would appear
I was Launcelot
and you were Guinevere
In the darkness giants roar
but you don't care
(how quickly nightmares turn to dreams)
I am there.
Standing guard with cardboard shield
and paper gun
(and soon it's day)
See them run
But there came a giant I couldn't fight
He was too strong
(on snow white horses)
Guinevere was right
and Launcelot was wrong
(we would ride through our dreams)
On the bomb site
You be mum and I'll be dad
(I wish that I had never left)
I am sad
Waiting for the boat
that sails down Garden street
(now it's too late)
Much too neat
Those were days of wooden swords
When dragons would appear
I was Launcelot
and you were Guinevere
I was Launcelot
and you were Guinevere
