And General Robert E. Lee - Elliott Murphy
-------------------------------------------
Intro:
And you and me and General Robert E. Lee
It was the greatest love story that was never told
A couple of kids out in the cold
They were lost in space, in a forest of doom
The Black Mountain Tops - a silver room
The Bad Princess - the Evil Duke - the Dead Pharaoh
Oh and Captain Hook - no Peter Pan or Mighty Mouse
The Big Bad Wolf blows down my house
And you and me and General Robert E. Lee
You know James Cagney, he was my best friend
The facts of life - the old dead end
The butler came down said someone had to die
A murder mystery thatâs never gonna fly
A story here have no fear
A world class myth is growing here
The wankers whisper and pass the beer
And Bambi grows into a beautiful deer
And you and me and General Robert E. Lee
There were to guitarists strumming into space
Spreading that message all over the place
UFOâs and flying cars
And Telstar and a man from Mars
I donât know what will last
A thousand years, the time goes past
A thousand years, oh a thousand years
And you and me and General Robert E. Lee
And General Robert E. Lee
Tell it on TV - on Charlie Chaplinâs knee
Iâm around the world in 80 days
And Robert E. Lee is dressed in grey
