Charlie Songtext
von The Men That Will Not Be Blamed for Nothing

V1.

Charlie, Charlie, Charlie...
The doctors son was he
Didn′t know what to do
When he finished school
So they packed him off
To sea

Charlie Charlie Charlie
A modern tragedy
The navy rum and the
Tropical sun
Has sent him dolally


So get back on the Beagle
Charles and sail far away
The things you said today
Is surely blasphemy!
Men of cloth and science agree:
That's quite enough! BEGONE CHARLIE!
How dare you go around
Telling me
My grandfather′s an ape!

V2.
Charlie, no you can't make a
Monkey out of me
This isn't the planet of the apes
Its the nineteeth century!

Charlie Charlie Charlie
Now you stand accused
Of calling Victoria′s dad a chimp
And she is not amused!

So get back on the Beagle
Charles and sail far away
The things you said today
Is surely blasphemy!
Men of cloth and science agree:
That′s quite enough! BEGONE CHARLIE!
How dare you go around
Telling me
My grandfather's an ape!

V3 - old children′s limerick:


Charlie charlie darwin darwin darwin
Charlie charlie darwin NOW WHAT THE 'ELL HAVE YA DONE?
The Origin of the Species the species the species
The Origin of the Species AND THE DESCENT OF MAN!
It contradicts the Bible, the Bible, the Bible
It contradicts the Bible ONE OF YOU IS WRONG!

So get back on the Beagle
Charles and sail far away
The things you said today
Is surely blasphemy!
Men of cloth and science agree:
That′s quite enough! BEGONE CHARLIE!
How dare you go around
Telling me
My grandfather's an ape!

V4.
Charlie, Charlie, Charlie...
What happened to you boy?
We thought you′d join the clergy
Not make the Lord annoyed!
Charlie, Charlie, Charlie...
At the age of fifty one
Your family's a laughing stock
Look at what you've done!

So get back on the Beagle
Charles and sail far away
The things you said today
Is surely blasphemy!
Men of cloth and science agree:
That′s quite enough! BEGONE CHARLIE!
How dare you go around
Telling me
My grandfather′s an ape!
