I'd Rather Be (a Cheese-Eating Surrender Monkey)

Pete Young
Language: English




I was in my pyjamas when I heard a startled voice
Speaking on the BBC
– You've got 45 minutes to eat your breakfast, son
Or you'll be toast you see –

There's a Zionist plot down the road from me
They can't grow olives cause the climate's wrong you see
Now I've got to move out!
['Oh dearie me' or 'I've got water on the knee'
Sing along with the line of your choice]
I'm caught between the devil
And the deep blue sea

Don't want to die
In this foreign land
You'll hear me cry
As I fall into the sand

I'd rather be
A cheese-eating -surrender monkey
I'd rather be
A cheese-eating surrender monkey..

I rather be, I'd rather be..
(A cheese-eating surrender monkey)

Don't want to die
in this foreign land..
You'll hear me cry
as I collapse into the sand..

I'd rather be
A cheese-eating surrender monkey
I'd rather be
A cheese-eating surrender monkey

I rather be, I'd rather be..
