[00:00:00] The Armadillo - Frank Turner

[00:00:00] Written By：Frank Turner

[00:00:12] I was taking compass bearings for the Ordnance Survey

[00:00:18] On an army training camp on Salisbury plain

[00:00:24] I had packed up my theodolite

[00:00:27] I was calling it a day

[00:00:30] When I heard a voice that sang a sad refrain

[00:00:39] Oh my darling Armadillo

[00:00:42] Let me tell you of my love

[00:00:45] Listen to my Armadillo roundelay

[00:00:51] Be my fellow on my pillow

[00:00:54] Underneath this weeping willow

[00:00:58] Be my darling Armadillo all the day

[00:01:13] I was somewhat disconcerted by this curious affair

[00:01:19] For a single Armadillo you will own

[00:01:25] On Salisbury plain in summer is comparatively rare

[00:01:31] And a pair of them is practically unknown

[00:01:37] Drawn by that mellow solo

[00:01:40] There I followed on my bike

[00:01:43] To discover what these Armadillo

[00:01:47] Lovers would be like

[00:01:53] Oh my darling Armadillo

[00:01:57] How delightful it would be

[00:02:00] If for us those silver wedding bells would chime

[00:02:06] Let the orange blossoms billow

[00:02:09] You need only say I will-oh

[00:02:11] Be my darling Armadillo all the time

[00:02:27] Then I saw them in a hollow by a yellow muddy bank

[00:02:34] An Armadillo singing to an armour plated tank

[00:02:42] Should I tell him gaunt and rusting with the willow tree above

[00:02:48] This abandoned on manoeuvres is the object of your love

[00:02:56] I left him to his singing

[00:02:59] Cycled home without a pause

[00:03:03] Never tell a man the truth

[00:03:06] About the one that he adores

[00:03:11] On the breeze that follows sunset

[00:03:14] I could hear that sad refrain

[00:03:17] Singing willow willow willow down the way

[00:03:23] And I seemed to hear it still Oh

[00:03:26] Vive L'amore vive l'Armadillo

[00:03:29] Be my darling Armadillo all the day

[00:03:35] Be my darling Armadillo all the day
