Ballad of Verdun Hayes
Everybody riot control yourselves
Everybody riot sit down, please
Everybody riot do as you're told
Everybody riot you're far too old
Verdun Hayes jumps out of a plane
That man's a hundred and one
Still goin' strong
Does what he wants
He listens to no one
The man's a machine
Lean and he's mean
A thousand lives won't see what he seen
No ball games everybody riot
Compensation claims everybody riot
Keep well back everybody riot
The flowers attack
Everybody down hit the floor
My shoes are untied somebody write a report
Everybody back up on your feet everybody riot quietly
Verdun Hayes jumps out of a plane
That man's a hundred and one
Still goin' strong
Does what he wants
He listens to no one
The man's a machine
Lean and he's mean
A thousand lives won't see what he seen
Health and safety sub section three stipulates no fun at all times
We're not here to ruin your party
Just here to make sure you're alright
Verdun Hayes jumps out of a plane
Verdun Hayes is at it again
Verdun, Verdun
That man's a hundred and one
Still goin' strong
Does what he wants
Listens to no one
The mans a machine
Lean and he's mean
A thousand lives won't see what he's seen
Do what you do, don't what you wanna don't
Be the king of it all if you want, if you want (whoa, oh, oh, oh)
There's a world goin' on outside those doors, whoa, whoa
There's a world goin' on and it's yours, and it's yours
Whoa, oh, oh, oh
Whoa, oh, oh, oh
Whoa, oh, oh, oh
Whoa, oh, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, oh
Whoa, oh, oh, oh
Everybody riot sit down, please
Everybody riot do as you're told
Everybody riot you're far too old
Verdun Hayes jumps out of a plane
That man's a hundred and one
Still goin' strong
Does what he wants
He listens to no one
The man's a machine
Lean and he's mean
A thousand lives won't see what he seen
No ball games everybody riot
Compensation claims everybody riot
Keep well back everybody riot
The flowers attack
Everybody down hit the floor
My shoes are untied somebody write a report
Everybody back up on your feet everybody riot quietly
Verdun Hayes jumps out of a plane
That man's a hundred and one
Still goin' strong
Does what he wants
He listens to no one
The man's a machine
Lean and he's mean
A thousand lives won't see what he seen
Health and safety sub section three stipulates no fun at all times
We're not here to ruin your party
Just here to make sure you're alright
Verdun Hayes jumps out of a plane
Verdun Hayes is at it again
Verdun, Verdun
That man's a hundred and one
Still goin' strong
Does what he wants
Listens to no one
The mans a machine
Lean and he's mean
A thousand lives won't see what he's seen
Do what you do, don't what you wanna don't
Be the king of it all if you want, if you want (whoa, oh, oh, oh)
There's a world goin' on outside those doors, whoa, whoa
There's a world goin' on and it's yours, and it's yours
Whoa, oh, oh, oh
Whoa, oh, oh, oh
Whoa, oh, oh, oh
Whoa, oh, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, oh
Whoa, oh, oh, oh
