For all souls lost

If we could have true peace on Earth

If we could have true peace on Earth
We’d have so much reason for mirth

If we could have true peace on Earth

We'd have so much reason for mirth
Imagine no wars
Peace as a cause,

There was a young lady from Slough
Who sailed down the Nile in a dhow
When she spied a croc
She went into shock
And she still dreams about it now

A pretty young girl from France

There was a young lady from Slough
Who sailed down the Nile on a dhow
When she spied a croc
She went into shock
And shouted “get rid of that - NOW !!”

The croc jumped right on!

But the croc splashed his way forward
The crew peered over to starboard
The croc jumped right on!
The ship's cat was gone
And the scared captain hit the road.

Her acer’s starting to wither
It's blowing a gale

My neighbour, she’s all a-dither
Her acer’s starting to wither
It's blowing a gale
She’s gone awful pale

My neighbour, she’s all a-dither
Her acer’s starting to wither
It's blowing a gale
She’s gone awful pale
And galloping hither and thither

Good grief, what a mess,
I'm scared, I confess,

The tornado has finally gone
Looks like we've been hit by a bomb
Good grief, what a mess,
