Lyrics
Sir Peter Riddlesworth stretches in his bed
It is so warm in there
It is so warm in there
Peter Riddlesworth hat upon his head
It is so cold out there
It is so cold out there
When he goes off to the war he'll see things that he's never seen before
He'll fly away and sail out to sea
He don't know what he's fighting for but if'n you ask me
He's gonna win it all, for shore
Peter Riddlesworth killing others dead
It is so bleak out there
It is so bleak out there
Peter Riddlesworth filling up with lead
It is so dark out there
It is so dark out there
And when he gets back from the war he'll say things that he's never said before
And raise his cane while fighting for his seat
He says he's mighty thirsty but he's drowning in his tea
He died for us from shore to shining shore
Strike fear into their hearts with a mighty roar
We've never seen his like before
