VE Day 2026
There’ll Always Be An England
I give you a toast, ladies and gentlemen
I give you a toast, ladies and gentlemen
May this fair land we love so well
In dignity and freedom dwell
Though worlds may change and go awry
While there is still one voice to cry
There’ll always be an England, While there’s a country lane
Wherever there’s a cottage small, Beside a field of grain
There’ll always be an England, While there’s a busy street
Wherever there’s a turning wheel, A million marching feet
Red, white and blue, What does it mean to you?
Surely you’re proud, shout it aloud, Britons, awake
The empire too, we can depend on you, freedom remains
These are the chains, nothing can break
There’ll always be an England, While there’s a busy street
Wherever there’s a turning wheel, A million marching feet
Red, white and blue, What does it mean to you?
Surely you’re proud, shout it aloud, Britons, awake
The empire too, we can depend on you, freedom remains
These are the chains, nothing can break
There’ll always be an England, And England shall be free
If England means as much to you, As England means to me
Lili Marlene
Underneath the lantern by the barrack gate
Darling I remember the way you used to wait
‘Twas there that you whispered tenderly
That you loved me, you’d always be
My Lili of the lamplight
My own Lili Marlene
Time would come for roll call, time for us to part
Darling I’d caress you and press you to my heart
And there ‘neath that far off lantern light
I’d hold you tight, we’d kiss good night
My Lili of the lamplight
My own Lili Marlene
Orders came for sailing somewhere over there
All confined to barracks t’was more than I could bear
I knew you were waiting in the street
I heard your feet but could not meet
My Lili of the lamplight
My own Lili Marlene
Resting in our billet just behind the line
Even though we’re parted your lips are close to mine
You wait where that lantern softly gleamed
Your sweet face seems to haunt my dreams
My Lili of the lamplight
My own Lili Marlene
My Lili of the lamplight
My own Lili Marlene.
Land Of Hope And Glory
Land of hope and glory,
Mother of the free
How shall we extol thee
Who are born of thee?
Wider still and wider
Shall thy bounds be set
God, who made thee mighty
Make thee mightier yet
God, who made thee mighty
Make thee mightier yet
Bless ‘Em All / Roll Out The Barrel / Washing
Bless ‘em all, bless ‘em all
The long and the short and the tall
Bless all the sergeants and W.O. ones
Bless all the corporals and their blinkin’ sons
‘Cause we’re saying goodbye to them all
As back to the billets they crawl
You’ll get no promotion this side of the ocean
So cheer up my lads, bless ‘em all
Roll out the barrel, we’ll have a barrel of fun
Roll out the barrel, we’ve got the blues on the run
Zing boom tararrel, ring out a song of good cheer
Now’s the time to roll the barrel, for the gang’s all here
We’re gonna hang out the washing on the Siegfried Line
Have you any dirty washing, mother dear
We’re gonna hang out the washing on the Siegfried Line
‘Cause washing day is here
Whether the weather may be wet or fine
We’ll rub along without a care
We’re gonna hang out the washing on the Siegfried Line
If the Siegfried Line’s still there!
Jerusalem
And did those feet in ancient time
Walk upon England’s mountains green?
And was the Holy Lamb of God
On England’s pleasant pastures seen?
And did the countenance divine
Shine forth upon our clouded hills?
And was Jerusalem builded here
Among these dark satanic mills
Bring me my bow of burning gold!
Bring me my arrows of de-sire!
Bring me my spear! o Clouds unfold!
Bring me my chariot of fire!
I will not cease from mental fight
Nor shall my sword sleep in my hand
‘Til we have built Jerusalem
In England’s green and pleasant land!
I’ll Get By
I’ll get by as long as I have you
Though there be rain and darkness, tooI’ll not complain, I’ll see it through
Poverty may come to me it’s true
But what care I, say, I’ll get by
As long as I have you
Poverty may come to me it’s true
But what care I, say, I’ll get by
As long as I have you
Don’t Fence Me In
Oh give me land, lots of land under starry skies above
Don’t fence me in
Let me ride through the wide open country that I love
Don’t fence me in
Let me be by myself in the evening breeze
Listen to the murmur of the cottonwood trees
Send me off forever but I ask you please,
Don’t fence me in
Just turn me loose, let me straddle my old saddle
Underneath the western skies
On my cayoose, let me wander over yonder
‘Til I see the mountain rise
I want to ride to the ridge where the west commences
Gaze at the moon until I lose my senses
I can’t look at hobbles and I can’t stand fences
Don’t fence me in
Lambeth Walk
Anytime you’re Lambeth way, any evening, any day
You’ll find us all doin’ the Lambeth Walk – OI!
Every little Lambeth gal with her little Lambeth pal
You’ll find ‘em all doin’ the Lambeth Walk – OI!
Everything’s free and easy, do as you darn well pleasey
Why don’t you make your way there, go there, stay there
Once you get down Lambeth way, every evening, every day
You’ll find us all doing the Lambeth Walk – OI!
Every little Lambeth gal with her little Lambeth pal
You’ll find ‘em all
Doin’ the Lambeth
Doin’ the Lambeth
Doin’ the Lambeth Walk – OI!
Leaning On A Lamp Post
I’m leaning on a lamp, maybe you think, I look a tramp
Or you may think I’m hanging ’round to steal a car
But no I’m not a crook, and if you think, that’s what I look
I’ll tell you why I’m here, and what my motives are
I’m leaning on a lamp-post at the corner of the street
In case a certain little lady comes by, Oh me, oh my
I hope the little lady comes by
I don’t know if she’ll get away, she doesn’t always get away
But anyhow I know that she’ll try, Oh me, oh my
I hope the little lady comes by
There’s no other girl I would wait for
but this one I’d break any date for
I won’t have to ask what she’s late for
She wouldn’t have to leave me flat
She’s not a girl like that
Oh, she’s absolutely wonderful, and marvellous and beautiful
And anyone can understand why
I’m leaning on a lamp-post at the corner of the street
In case a certain little lady passes by
I’ll Be Seeing You
Cathedral bells were tolling, and our hearts sang on
Was it the spell of Paris or the April dawn
Who knows if we shall meet again
But when the morning chimes ring sweet again
I’ll be seeing you in all the old familiar places
That this heart of mine embraces all day through
In the small cafe, the park across the way
The children’s carousel, the chestnut trees, the wishing well
I’ll be seeing you in every lovely summer’s day
In everything that’s bright and gay
I’ll always think of you that way
I’ll find you in the morning sun and when the night is new
I’ll be looking at the moon, but I’ll be seeing you.
I’ll be seeing you in every lovely summer’s day
In everything that’s bright and gay
I’ll always think of you that way
I’ll find you in the morning sun and when the night is new
I’ll be looking at the moon, but I’ll be seeing you.
When Johnny Comes Marching Home
When Johnny comes marching home again, Hurrah! Hurrah!
We’ll give him a hearty welcome then, Hurrah! Hurrah!
Oh, the men will cheer the boys will shout
The ladies they will all turn out,
And we’ll all feel gay when Johnny comes marching home
And we’ll all feel gay when Johnny comes marching home.
Get ready for the Jubilee, Hurrah! Hurrah!
We’ll give the hero three times three, Hurrah! Hurrah!
Well, the laurel wreath is ready now
To place upon his loyal brow
And we’ll all feel gay when Johnny comes marching home
And we’ll all feel gay when Johnny comes marching home.
In eighteen hundred and sixty-one Hurrah! Hurrah!
That was when the war begun, Hurrah! Hurrah!
In eighteen hundred and sixty-two,
Both sides were falling to,
And we’ll all drink stone wine when Johnny comes marching home.
And we’ll all drink stone wine when Johnny comes marching home.
In eighteen hundred and sixty-three, Hurrah! Hurrah!
Old Abe, he ended slavery, Hurrah! Hurrah!
In eighteen hundred and sixty-three
Old Abe, he ended slavery
And we’ll all drink stone wine when Johnny comes marching home.
And we’ll all drink stone wine when Johnny comes marching home.
In eighteen hundred and sixty-four, Hurrah! Hurrah!
Abe called for five hundred thousand more, Hurrah! Hurrah!
In eighteen hundred and sixty-five,
They talked rebellion–strife;
And we’ll all drink stone wine when Johnny comes marching home.
And we’ll all drink stone wine when Johnny comes marching home.
I Vow To Thee
I vow to thee, my country, all earthly things above,
Entire and whole and perfect, the service of my love.
The love that asks no question, the love that stands the test,
That lays upon the altar the dearest and the best.
The love that never falters, the love that pays the price,
The love that makes undaunted the final sacrifice.
And there’s another country, I’ve heard of long ago,
Most dear to them that love her, most great to them that know.
We may not count her armies, we may not see her King,
Her fortress is a faithful heart, her pride is suffering.
And soul by soul and silently her shining bounds increase,
And her ways are ways of gentleness
And all her paths are peace.
Let Me Call You Sweetheart/If You Were The Only Girl In The World
Let me call you “Sweetheart,” I’m in love with you.
Let me hear you whisper that you love me too.
Keep the love-light glowing in your eyes so true.
Let me call you “Sweetheart,” I’m in love with you.
If you were the only girl in the world
and I were the only boy
Nothing else would matter in the world today
We could go on loving in the same old way
A garden of Eden just made for two
With nothing to mar our joy
I would say such wonderful things to you
There would be such wonderful things to do
If you were the only girl in the world
and I were the only boy
Accentuate The Positive
You’ve got to ac-cen-tuate the positive
Elim-I-nate the negative
Latch onto the af-firmative, don’t mess with Mr. In Be-tween
You’ve got to spread joy up to the maximum
Bring gloom down to the minimum
Have faith or pandemonium liable to walk upon the scene
To illus-trate my last remark
Jonah in the whale, Noah in the ark
What did they do
Just when everything looked so dark,
Man they said, we better
Ac-centuate the positive, elim-I-nate the negative an’
Latch onto the af-firmative, don’t mess with Mr. In Be-tween,
No, don’t mess with Mr. In Be-tween

No, don’t mess with Mr. In Be-tween
Don’t Sit Under The Apple Tree
I wrote my mother, I wrote my father
And now I’m writing you too
I’m sure of mother, I’m sure of father
Now I wanna be sure of you
Don’t sit under the apple tree with anyone else but me
Anyone else but me, anyone else but me, No! No! No!
Just remember that I’ve been true to nobody else but you
So just be true to me
Don’t go walking down lovers’ lane with anyone else but me
Anyone else but me, anyone else but me, No! No! No!
Don’t start showing off all your charms in somebody else’s arms
You must be true to me
I’m so afraid that the plans we made
Underneath those moonlit skies
Will fade away and you’re bound to stray
If the stars get in your eyes
So, don’t sit under the apple tree with anyone else but me
You’re my L-O-V-E
Daisy Bell
Daisy Daisy give me your answer do
I’m half crazy all for the love of you
It won’t be a stylish marriage
I can’t afford a carriage
But you’ll look sweet upon the seat
Of a bicycle built for two
White Cliffs Of Dover
There’ll be bluebirds over the white cliffs of Dover
Tomorrow just you wait and see
There’ll be love and laughter and peace ever after
Tomorrow when the world is free
The shepherd will tend his sheep, the valley will bloom again
And Jimmy will go to sleep, in his own little room again
There’ll be bluebirds over the white cliffs of Dover
Tomorrow just you wait and see
There’ll be love and laughter and peace ever after
Tomorrow when the world is free
We’ll Meet Again
We’ll meet again, don’t know where, don’t know when
But I know we’ll meet again some sunny day
Keep smiling through, just like you always do
’Til the blue skies chase those dark clouds far away
And won’t you please say hello to the folks that I know
Tell them, I won’t be long
They’ll be happy to know that, as you saw me go,
I was singing this song
We’ll meet again, don’t know where, don’t know when
But I know we’ll meet again some sunny day
God Save The King
God save our gracious King
Long live our noble King
God save the King
Send him victorious
Happy and glorious
Long too reign over us
God save the King
Thy choicest gifts in store
On him be pleased to pour
Long may he reign
May he defend our laws
And ever give us cause
To sing with heart and voice
God save the King
May 2026
Catch A Falling Star
Never let it fade away
Catch a falling star and put it in your pocket,
Save it for a rainy day
For love may come and tap you on the shoulder, some starless night
And just in case you feel you want to hold her
You’ll have a pocketful of starlight
Catch a falling star and put it in your pocket
Never let it fade away
Catch a falling star and put it in your pocket,
Save it for a rainy day
For when your troubles start multiplyin’, and they just might
It’s easy to forget them without tryin’
With just a pocketful of starlight
Catch a falling star and put it in your pocket
Never let it fade away
Catch a falling star and put it in your pocket,
Save it for a rainy day, Save it for a rainy day, Save it for a rainy day
Oh What A Beautiful Mornin’
There’s a bright, golden haze on the meadow,
There’s a bright, golden haze on the meadow.
The corn is as high as an elephant’s eye
And it looks like it’s climbing clear up to the sky
Oh, what a beautiful mor-nin’, oh, what a beautiful day,
I’ve got a beautiful feelin’, everything’s goin’ my way.
All the cattle are standin’ like statues,
All the cattle are standin’ like statues.
They don’t turn their heads as they see me ride by
But a little brown mav’rick is winkin’ her eye.
Oh, what a beautiful mor-nin’, oh, what a beautiful day,
I’ve got a beautiful feelin’, everything’s goin’ my way.
All the sounds of the earth are like music,
Oh, the sounds of the earth are like music.
The breeze is so busy, it don’t miss a tree
An’ a ol’ weepin’ willer is laughin’ at me.
Oh, what a beautiful mor-nin’, oh, what a beautiful day,
I’ve got a beautiful feelin’, everything’s goin’ my way.
Oh, what a beautiful day

What A Wonderful World
I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom, for me and you,
And I think to myself, What a wonderful world.
I see skies of blue and clouds of white,
The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night,
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world
The colours of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people goin’ by
I see friends shaking hands, saying, “How do you do?”
They’re really saying, “I love you.”
I hear babies cry, I watch them grow
They’ll learn much more than I’ll ever know
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world
Yes I think to myself, what a wonderful world
Imagine
Imagine there’s no heaven, it’s easy if you try
No hell below us, Above us only sky
Imagine all the people, Living for today… Ahaah…
Imagine there’s no countries, It isn’t hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for, And no religion, too
Imagine all the people, Living life in peace… You…
You may say I’m a dreamer, But I’m not the only one
I hope someday you’ll join us, And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions, I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger, A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people, Sharing all the world… You…
You may say I’m a dreamer, But I’m not the only one
I hope someday you’ll join us, And the world will be as one
I Can See Clearly Now
I can see clearly now the rain is gone
I can see all obstacles in my way
Gone all the dark clouds that had me blind
It’s gonna be a bright, (bright) bright, (bright) sun shiny day
It’s gonna be a bright, (bright) bright, (bright) sun shiny day
I think I can make it now the pain is gone,
All of the bad feelings have disappeared.
Here is the rainbow I have been praying for.
It’s gonna be a bright, (bright) bright, (bright) sun shiny day
It’s gonna be a bright, (bright) bright, (bright) sun shiny day
Look all around, there’s nothing but blue skies
Look straight ahead, there’s nothing but blue skiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiies
I can see clearly now the rain is gone
I can see all obstacles in my way
Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind
It’s gonna be a bright, (bright) bright, (bright) sun shiny day
It’s gonna be a bright, (bright) bright, (bright) sun shiny day
It’s gonna be a bright, (bright) bright, (bright) sun shiny day
I’d Like To Teach The World To Sing
I’d like to build the world a home And furnish it with love
Grow apple trees and honey bees And snow-white turtle doves
I’d like to teach the world to sing, In perfect harmony
I’d like to hold it in my arms And keep it company
I’d like to see the world for once All standing hand in hand
And hear them echo through the hills For peace throughout the land
That’s the song I hear (I’d like to teach the world to sing)
Let the world sing today (In perfect harmony)
I’d like to teach the world to sing In perfect harmony
Laa la la laah, Do-do dooh do-do dooh
Ahh ha ha haah ahaa ha ha, La la laah
I’d like to build the world a home And furnish it with love
Grow apple trees and honey bees And snow-white turtle doves
I’d like to teach the world to sing, In perfect harmony
I’d like to hold it in my arms And keep it company
I’d like to see the world for once All standing hand in hand
And hear them echo through the hills For peace throughout the land
Don’t Stop Believin’
Just a small town girl, Livin’ in a lonely world
She took the midnight train goin’ anywhere
Just a city boy, Born and raised in South Detroit
He took the midnight train goin’ anywhere
A singer in a smoky room, A smell of wine and cheap perfume
For a smile they can share the night, It goes on and on, and on, and on
Strangers waiting Up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searching in the night
Streetlights, people, Living just to find emotion
Hiding somewhere in the night
Working hard to get my fill, Everybody wants a thrill
Payin’ anything to roll the dice Just one more time
Some will win, some will lose, Some were born to sing the blues
Oh, the movie never ends, It goes on and on, and on, and ooooon
Strangers waiting, Up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searching in the night
Streetlights, people, Living just to find emotion
Hiding somewhere in the night
Don’t stop believin’, Hold on to the feelin’
Streetlights, people, oh-oh-ah
Don’t stop believin’, Hold on to the feelin’
Streetlights, people, oh-oh-ah
Don’t stop believin’, Hold on to the feelin’
Streetlights, people, oh-oh-ah

All Things Bright And Beautiful
All things bright and beautiful
All creatures great and small
All things wise and wonderful
The Lord God made them all
Each little flow’r that opens
Each little bird that sings
He made their glowing colours
He made their tiny wings
The purple headed mountains
The river running by
The sunset and the morning
That brightens up the sky
The cold wind in the winter
The pleasant summer sun
The ripe fruits in the garden
He made them every one
He gave us eyes to see them
And lips that we might tell
How great is God Almighty
Who has made all things well
Everlasting Love
Hearts gone astray, deep in hurt when they go
I went away, just when you, you need me so
You won’t regret, I come back beggin’ you
Won’t you forget, welcome love we once knew
Open up your eyes then you realise
Here I stand with my everlasting love
Need you by my side, girl to be my bride
You’ll never be denied, everlasting love
From the very start, open up your heart
Feel that you’re part of everlasting love
Where life really flows, no one really knows
‘Til someone’s there to show the way to lasting love
Like the sun it shines, endlessly it shines
You always will be mine, if eternal love
Whenever love went wrong, ours would still be strong
We’d have our very own everlasting love
Open up your eyes then you realise
Here I stand with my everlasting love
Need you by my side, girl to be my bride
You’ll never be denied, everlasting love
From the very start, open up your heart
Feel that you’re part of everlasting love
There’s a Kind Of Hush
There’s a kind of hushshsh, all over the world, tonight

Those Lazy, Hazy, Crazy Days of Summer
Roll out those lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer,
Those days of soda and pretzels and beer.
Roll out those lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer,
Dust off the sun and moon and sing a song of cheer.
Just fill your basket full of sandwiches and weenies.
Then lock the house up, now you’re set.
And on the beach you’ll see the girls in their bi..kin..is,
As cute as ever but they never get ’em wet.
Roll out those lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer
Those days of soda and pretzels and beer.
Roll out those lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer,
Dust off the sun and moon and sing a song of cheer.
Don’t have to tell a girl and fella about a drive-in.
Or some roman..tic moon, it seems.
Right from the moment that those lovers start arriving,
You’ll see more kissing in the cars than on the screen.
Roll out those lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer,
Those days of soda and pretzels and beer.
Roll out those lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer,
Dust off the sun and moon and sing a song of cheer.
You’ll wish that summer could always be here.
You’ll wish that summer could always be here.
Lifted
I really love to be alone without all the
Ache and pain and the – April showers
It ain’t long before I long for you
Like a – ray of hope comin’ – through the blues
When it all get darker there,
The whole thing falls apart I guess
It doesn’t really matter about the rain,
Cause we’ll get through it any way
We’ll get up and start again
Cause we could be lifted, lifted, lifted
We could be lifted, from the shadows, lifted
Oh we could be – lifted up today, lifted all the way
You and I forever baby
Lifted, lifted, lifted
It’s undisturbable the peace without in a
Bright blue space, up a – bove the clouds
Everything is understandable
You don’t – have to say anything too loud
When our love runs out again
Drop back down to solid ground
I wouldn’t say I was mad about the rain
But we’ll get through it any way
We’ll get back to the start again
Cause we could be lifted, lifted, lifted
We could be lifted, from the shadows, lifted
Oh we could be – lifted up today, lifted all the way
You and I forever baby
Lifted, lifted, lifted
Top Of The World
Such a feelin’s comin’ over me
There is wonder in ‘most everything I see
Not a cloud in the sky, got the sun in my eyes
And I, won’t be surprised if it’s a dream
Everything I want the world to be
Is now comin’ true especially for me
And the reason is clear, it’s because you are here
You’re the nearest thing to heaven that I’ve seen
I’m on the, top of the world lookin’, down on creation
And the only explanation I can find
Is the love that I’ve found ever since you’ve been around
Your love’s put me at the top of the world
Somethin’ in the wind has learned my name
And it’s tellin’ me that things are not the same
In the leaves on the trees and the touch of the breeze
There’s a pleasin’ sense of happiness for me
There is only one wish on my mind
When this day is through I hope that I will find
That tomorrow will be just the same for you and me
All I need will be mine if you are here
I’m on the top of the world lookin’ down on creation
And the only explanation I can find
Is the love that I’ve found ever since you’ve been around
Your love’s put me at the top of the world
Thank You For The Music
I’m nothing special, in fact I’m a bit of a bore
If I tell a joke, you’ve probably heard it before
But I have a talent, a wonderful thing
‘Cause everyone listens when I start to sing
I’m so grateful and proud, all I want is to sing it out loud
So I say thank you for the music, the songs I’m singing
Thanks for all the joy they’re bringing
Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty
What would life be, without a song or a dance what are we?
So I say thank you for the music, for giving it to me
Mother says I was a dancer before I could walk
She says I began to sing long before I could talk
And I’ve often wondered, how did it all start?
Who found out that nothing can capture a heart
Like a melody can? Well, whoever it was, I’m a fan
So I say thank you for the music, the songs I’m singing
Thanks for all the joy they’re bringing
Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty
What would life be, without a song or a dance what are we?
So I say thank you for the music, for giving it to me
I’ve been so lucky, I am the girl with golden hair
I wanna sing it out to everybody
What a joy, what a life, what a chance!
So I say thank you for the music, the songs I’m singing
Thanks for all the joy they’re bringing
Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty
What would life be, without a song or a dance what are we?
So I say thank you for the music, for giving it to me
