These are your orders, seems like it's do it or die
So please read them closely
When you've learnt them be sure that you eat them up
Twelve sheets of foolscap, don't ask me why.
We hit the jungle just as it starts to monsoon
Our maps showed no rainfall
All the boys were depressed by this circumstance
Trust in the weather to bless agricultural man
Who gives birth to more farmhands, don't ask me why.
Fifteen was chosen because he was dumb
Seven because he was blind
I got the job because I was so mean
While somehow appearing so kind
Drifting about through the cauliflower trees
With a cauliflower ear for the birds
The Squadron assembled what senses they had
And this is the sound that they heard
Back at headquarters khaki decisions are made
File under 'Futile'
that should give you its main point of reference
It's all so confusing, what with pythons and then deadly flies
But to them it's a picnic, don't ask me why.
Thirteen was chosen because of his luck
Eleven because of his feet
One got signed up for exceptional pluck
Another because he was mute
Roaming about through the gelatin swamps
With a gelatin eye on the stripes
The Squadron assembled what senses they had
And this is the sound that they heard
Back in Blighty there was you
There were milkmen every morning
But/F*ck these endless shiny trees
Never used to be that way...

Oh cheeky, cheeky
Oh naughty sneaky
You're so perceptive
And I wonder how you knew
But these finks don't walk too well
A bad sense of direction
And so...
Those who know
They don’t let it show
They just give you one long glance
And you’ll go oh, oh, oh, oh.

It's just an old photograph, there's nothing to hide
When the world was just beginning
