Jump down the shelters to get away. The boys are cockin' up their guns. Tell us general is it party time?. If it is can we all come?. Don't think that we don't know. Don't think that we're not trying. Don't think we move too slow. It's no use after crying. Saying. It's a mistake it's a mistake. It's a mistake it's a mistake. After the laughter has died away. And all the boys have had their fun. No surface noise now not much to say. They've got the bad guys on the run. Don't try to say you're sorry. Don't say he drew his gun. They've gone and grabbed old Ronnie. He's not the only one. Saying. It's a mistake it's a mistake. It's a mistake it's a mistake. Tell us commander what do you think?. 'Cos we know that you love all that power. Is it on then are we on the brink?. We wish you'd all throw in the towel. We'll not fade out too soon. Not in this finest hour. Whistle your favourite tune. We'll send a card and a flower. Saying. It's a mistake it's a mistake. It's a mistake it's a mistake
