[00:00.00]The General's Fast Asleep - Vera Lynn/The Rhythm Rascals/Jay Wilbur/Ambrose & His Orchestra
[00:51.85]You won't see any big parade
[00:54.46]There won't be any bugle played
[00:56.90]Sad to say no war today
[00:59.26]'Cause the general's fast asleep
[01:02.12]Soldiers bold in a mighty row
[01:04.93]They've been told they're to fight the foe
[01:07.39]Sad to say no war today
[01:09.71]'Cause the general's fast asleep
[01:12.62]The colonel's mad and the major blue
[01:15.21]The captain's sad and the sergeant too
[01:17.82]Guess this war will have to keep
[01:20.33]It's enough to make an army weep
[01:23.27]Look oh look at his curly head
[01:25.88]Time to take him away to bed
[01:28.47]Sad to say no war today
[01:30.91]'Cause the general's fast asleep
[02:18.49]It seems an awful shame
[02:23.45]That his victory won't go down to fame
[02:28.57]Sandman's here to dim the light
[02:33.81]Little general good night
