So long and thanks for all the fish
So sad that it should come to this
We tried to warn you all but oh dear
You may not share our intellect
Which might explain your disrespect
For all the natural wonders that grow
So long, so long and thanks for all the fish
The world's about to be destroyed
There's no point getting all annoyed
Lie back and let the planet dissolve
(..all around you..)
Despite those nets and tuna fleets
We thought that most of you were sweet
Especially tiny tots and your pregnant women
so long, so long, so long, so long, so long,
so long, so long, so long, so long, so long,
so long, so long and thanks for all the fish
If I had just one last wish
I would like a tasty fish
If we could just change one thing
We would all have learnt to sing
Come one and all
Man and mammal
Side by side in life's great gene pool
so long, so long, so long, so long, so long,
so long, so long, so long, so long, so long,
so long, so long and thanks for all the fish

I used to like a restaurant called "Chez So Long". It was very posh.
"so long, Marianne
it's time that we began
to laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again"
Adieu, adieu, to yieu and yieu and yieu.
I would like a tasty fish"
Thought you were a chicken boy !!
Having the anchovies sewn in.
I got the news that the war had begun
It was straight for the Army Hall that I run
And all of the people in my home town
Was a running up and a running down
Singing:
CHORUS:
So long, it's been good to know you
So long, it's been good to know you
So long, it's been good to know you
There's a mighty big war that's got to be won
And we'll get back together again.
The crowd was packed by the railroad track
People was yelling and patting my back
And while the engineer rung his bell
I hugged all the mothers and kissed all the gals,
Singing:
CHORUS
I got to the camp and I learnt how to fight
Fascists in daytime, mosquitoes at night
I got my orders to cross o'er the sea
So I waved "goodbye" to the girls I could see,
Singing:
CHORUS
I got on a boat and I started to float
My old pack-sack and my big wool coat
With ten thousand men we rode the foam
And sung this song to the people back home:
CHORUS
I landed somewhere on a fighting shore
With ten million soldiers and ten million more
And while we were chasing that Super Race
We sung this song in the chase.
It was:
CHORUS
So it won't be long till the fascists are gone
And all of their likes are finished and done
We'll throw the clods of dirt in their face
And walk away from that lonesome place
Singing:
CHORUS
So long and thanks for all the fish....
Mini laughed out loud when the mice said 'oh bollox' :-)
I can't believe I nearly didn't see it, Wombs! had me grinning from ear to ear it did. Also liked the bit when they were woolly versions of themselves!
