I imagined the medals they'd give me
When this was all through
You imagined the-
Medals I know
Right
And then Winston goes
Winston Churchill?
We'd be lost without you
Right and where is this?
The palace
Oh of course
And I'd bow and salute
The King knows we're the reason we've won
The King's there is he?
And there's so many medals
And the crowds they'd assemble
And demand to hear just what we've done
And Mr. Churchill says?
He says
Yes it's all true
Though you'd never believe it
They did what they could do
And though you'd never see it
They worked and they prayed
And it wasn't in vain
They knew pain could be strength
And that strength could be pain
They forced enemy forces to fly
They banished the planes from the sky
And they did something useful
Well I look forward to the wireless event
What about you?
What about me?
What's the dream scenario?
Miss Leslie
How about a statue?
Oh for goodness sake
Here lies Hester Leggett
Oh good I'm dead
Oh Jesus what is wrong with me?
Perhaps just a small plaque
Go on
Something tasteful and small
Of course
Nothing over the top
People don't stand and stop
'Cos just one look and their tears start to fall
Oh Lord
I can see it
With flowers pride of place in a garden
A garden?
Or a grand royal park
Ah thank you
And it's silver
Gold
Gold
