lyrics

ROBIN'S BIG BANG

"It's all in the bang. It's all in the bang.
It's all in the bang," bold Robin sang.

When he was at school he liked to be cool
So he made a bomb, a bloody big bomb,
An old tea chest, a fuse and flour.
He kicked it about for over an hour.
He lit the fuse and ran.

"It's all in the bang. It's all in the bang.
It's all in the bang," bold Robin sang.

The blast it blew the windows out
For more than half a mile about
But no one ever caught the brat
That holed the holy hockey pitch
And killed the Headmasters cat.

"It's all in the bang. It's all in the bang.
It's all in the bang," bold Robin sang.

Well, the years soon past from that grand blast.
He joined the SAS
And he blew here and he blew there
Till he blew the General out of his chair
And he was a civvy again.

"It's all in the bang. It's all in the bang.
It's all in the bang," bold Robin sang.

The last I heard, he was doing fine.
He'd taken up gardening, at the time,
And blew up his Mother's apple trees,
All in a line,
Boom-boom, boom-boom, boom-boom!

"It's all in the bang. It's all in the bang.
It's all in the bang," bold Robin sang.

"It's all in the bang. It's all in the bang.
It's all in the bang," bold Robin sang.
Boom! Boom!
