  • Lay down your arms

    Lay em down lay em down now

    Lay down your arms

    Newsreels rattle the nazi dread

    The able bodied have shipped away

    Molly mcgee gets her tea leaves read

    You'll be married in a month they say

    These leaves are crazy

    Look at this town there's no men left

    Just frail old boys and babies

    Talking to teacher in the treble clef

    She plants her garden in the spring

    She does the winter shovelling

    Tokyo rose on the radio

    She says she's leaving but she don't go

    Out of the blue just passing thru

    A young flight sergeant On two weeks leave

    Says molly mcgee no one else will do

    And seals the tea leaf prophecy

    Oh these nights are strong and soft

    Private passions and secret storms

    Nothing about him ticks her off
    And he looks so cute in his uniform

    She plants her garden in the spring

    He does the winter shovelling

    But summer's just a sneeze in a long long bad-winter cold

    She says I'm leaving here but she don't go

    Sleep little darling This is your happy home

    Hiroshima cannot be pardoned

    Don't have kids when you get grown

    Because this world is shattered

    The wise are mourning

    The fools are joking

    Oh what does it matter

    The wash needs ironing and the fire needs stoking

    She plants her garden in the spring

    He does the winter shovelling

    The three of em laughing round the radio

    She says I'm leaving here but she don't go

    She plants her garden in the spring

    They do the winter shovelling
