Lyrics:

Does anybody know how long to World War III?
I wanna know, I wanna book me holidee
They want me in the Army but I just can't go
I'm far too busy listening to the radio

The whole thing's daft
I don't know why
You have to laugh
Or else you cry
You have to live
Or else you die
You have to laugh
Or else you cry

My friends say that we're heading for a grotty time
It's just a bit of slapstick and a pantomime
We're heading for disaster but I just don't care
Shut your eyes and count to ten, you won't be there

The whole thing's daft
I don't know why
You have to laugh
Or else you cry

You have to live
Or else you die
You have to laugh
Or else you cry
