Lyrics[]
CHORUS
England swings like a pendulum do,
Bobbies on bicycles, two by two,
Westminster Abbey, the tower of Big Ben,
The rosy red cheeks of the little children.
Now, if you huff and puff and you finally save enough
Money up to take your family on a trip across the sea,
Take a tip before you take your/a trip; let me tell you where to go,
Go to England, Oh
CHORUS
Instrumental Break
Mama's old pajamas and your papa's mustache,
Falling out the windowsill, frolic in the grass,
Tryin' to mock the way they talk fun but all in vain,
Gaping at the dapper men with derby hats and canes
CHORUS (x2)
Instrumental Break
The rosy red cheeks of the little children.
