• B

Intro: B G#m E F# (4x)
 
B                G#m                        E                  F# 
Arthur Askey and Douggie-Wouggie Bader went down to the animal farm 
B                             G#m 
Douggie bored a boar with his stories from the war 
      E                             F# 
And explained about the boil on his palm. 
  B                         G#m 
Napoleon, very pink offered both of them a drink 
      E                       F# 
And a drink and a drink and a drink. 
B                               G#m 
Come the hour of four they were legless to be sure 
    E                          F#7 
Not one of them had even had a wink of sleep. 
    B                 E            F# 
And everybody sang as loud as they could 
B                 E         F# 
'Two legs bad but four legs good' 
B                       E        F#       B G#m E F# (2x) 
This made the boys feel pretty oppressed. 
B                         G#m 
Came the new realm it was A A at the helm 
      E                                  F# 
While Douggers played 'Luftwaffe' on the roofs. 
      B                        G#m 
After amputating limbs all the others wrote new hymns 
      E                          F# 
And a signpost said 'Second Hand Hooves'. 
B                       G#m 
Years passed by, double grazing in the sty 
       E                        F# 
It was good but it was total apathy. 
     B                           G#m 
Everybody arsed around and that 'beasts of England' sound 
         E                      F#7 
Had been ruined by a busy, busy bee. 
    B                          E           F# 
And chants were heard from the East to the West 
B                   E       F# 
'Four legs good but no legs best' 
B          E         F#7    B  F#7 
Invalidity reigned supreme. 
    B                          E           F# 
And chants were heard from the East to the West 
B                   E       F# 
'Four legs good but no legs best' 
B                      E         F#    B G#m E F# (4x) F#7 
One time visitors were now the regime.
