Текст песни Bilko - Hugh Cornwell

Once upon a time, there was a sergeant in the army
He was bald before it became cool
Glasses and a manner misinterpreted as barmy
Everybody labelled him a fool

Bilko, psycho wacko
Bilko, Sergeant Ernest
Bilko

Scratching round in Kansas poker was the only game
Never thought he'd see the light of day
Slamming rookies, shaking bookies, no two days the same
Colonel Hall was always in the way

Bilko, psycho wacko
Bilko, Sergeant Ernest
Bilko

Emperor, philosopher, Lucifer, facilitator

Paparelli, Henshaw, Doberman and Sergeant Ritzick
Take me on the thirty-minute ride
Up and down the roller-coaster, Ernie at the joystick
Laugh and laugh and laugh until you cried

Bilko, psycho wacko
Bilko, Sergeant Ernest
Bilko

Emperor, philosopher, Lucifer, facilitator
