We are Fred Karno's Army

Speranza

To the tune of "The church's one foundation"

we are Fred Karno’s army

the rag time infantry

we cannot fight

we cannot shoot

what bloody use are we

& when we get to Berlin

the Kaiser he will say

hoch hoch mein Got

what a bloody rotten lot

are the ragtime infantry

we are Fred Karno’s Army

Fred Karno’s our o.c.

Charlie Chaplin is our captain

what a funny lot are we

& when we get to Berlin

the Kaiser he will say

hoch hoch mein Got

what a funny bloody lot

are the men of the RFC
