Four firemen scrambled aboard their engine and raced five miles, blue and amber lights flashing Emergency call from the army But a surprise... was waiting when they got there The bathroom of the sergeant`s mess was covered with water (covered with water) Their orders were to mop it up and put it in order (put it in order)
The friends of the army fire brigade came out in sympathy We didn`t join to mop the floors or right the IMP... [coughing] They still had to do their jobs and throw the book at you You can`t believe it`s true
On questioned why they refused to do it, they each replied, "This is how I see it." The first one to answer was Henry "I could work." The others felt the same way They all agreed it wasn`t fair We shouldn`t be made to (shouldn`t be made to) It really is the principle We should remain true to (should remain true to)
They fought through two world wars, you see, with hand and tooth and fist Now William said he`d never stand for treatment such as this... They still had to lose their jobs and now they`ve been suspended (The story isn`t ended) The story isn`t ended
