"As war was on, going on
I get blinkered, I'm drafted"

:34:08
"As there was war, war going on
Life became dear, things were scarce"

:34:13
"The scarcer they were, more I was eyed
With strange eyes and chattering teeth"

:34:18
"They called me beefsteak
I thought it was English, gee up!"

:34:21
"All who were living and loving"
:34:23
"Were awaiting my death,
so they could eat me"

:34:27
"One night in the stables,
a night I was sleeping"

:34:30
"I heard a weird sound,
a voice that I knew,"

:34:32
"The old general had returned
like a ghost with an old friend"

:34:37
"Thinking I was sleeping,
they spoke very softly:"

:34:40
"Enough of watery rice
we need to chew on red meat"

:34:43
"Just add to his oats
some needles for a treat"

:34:45
"My heart missed a beat
like a circus pony"

:34:48
"Dashing out of the stable
I hid in the spinney"

:34:52
"Now the war is over
The old general is dead"

:34:56
"Dead in his bed
Dead of a fine death"

:34:59
"But I am alive
and that's the main thing"

:35:03
"Good evening, good night"
:35:07
"Bon appétit, dear general"
:35:25
It's the advert.
:35:28
Not funny, sorry...
:35:31
I'm not funny. I have to admit it.
:35:33
Sit down. Sorry...
:35:37
I'm quite idiotic.
:35:40
Deficient, if you prefer.
:35:43
No, I like idiotic. It's nicer.
:35:46
No, not all.
You're just a little overworked...

:35:50
Yes, I do a lot of business,
I work a lot.

:35:54
I have a lot of responsibility.
:35:57
I travel a lot,
I do everything a lot.
