[Verse 1]
Now, you know, when I was [G]younger,
I remember when I was younger,
it was before the war, you remember the war,
it was in all the papers,
and I remember...
No, no, really, really,
[C]my little brother and I,
used to go to school,
we're always in trouble,
one day my little brother,
he put his hand up,
which is a dirty habit,
and he put his hand up...
He said, Miss, Miss, Miss, Miss,
us have no [G]pencils.[C]
She said, pardon?
He said, us have no pencils.
She said, we have no pencils.
I have no pencils.
They have no pencils.
He said, well, who's got all
the bloody pencils?
LAUGHTER AND
And my teacher, my teacher was full of wind,
full of wind.
You're kidding me.
Oh, no, no.
This'll kill you, this.
She was full of wind. No, that...
Really.
And one day she was giving us a lesson,
you see, and she let this enormous burp...
And she tried to blame it on my brother.
She said, you stop that.
He said, I'll try,
miss, which way did it go?
Hey!
Oh, I cleaned that one up well.
So...
She said to us...
She said, I'm laughing cos
I know what's coming.
No, she said...
She said to us one day,
she said, she said,
now, I want you all to give me a sentence
with the word catastrophe
in it, see?
Give me a word, a sentence, see?
Catastrophe.
So one little boy,
you always get a little smart one,
don't you, in the class?
You know, with the glasses and a high forehead,
very intelligent.
And we had one in the class called Bernard,
he was called, Bernard.
He said, well, miss, if an ocean liner sinks in the middle
of the ocean and all the people are drowned,
It is what is known as a catastrophe.
She said very good Bernard sit
Then the little girl stood up
called Hilary
there's a Hilary in every class,
you know Hilary
Usually was all wrinkly looks like that, you know,
and you get around her back of the bike shed
and Hilary Hilary service
that well miss miss miss
If a plane crashes into the
side of a mountain,
it is what is known as a catastrophe.
So my little brother got up, big mouth, he got up, he said,
he said, I've got a 17 -year -old sister
and [G]every month she
puts a ring round
one of the [C]dates on the calendar.
And this month [G]there isn't
one in [C]our house,
that's [Dm]a catastrophe.
[F]
Do you know I was
away for two [G]years
and when I came home
my [C]wife had a three month old baby
[Em]an d[C] I said what's he called
and she said Benny
[F]I said where did he come f[G]rom
she said heaven an[Em]d you know
[G]every [C]tim[D]e I a[Ebdim]sked my w[Em]ife she[Eb]
[D]says Ben is from [G]heaven [D]her[G]
Her [C]face goes [D]white,
[Ebdim]but still she[Em] says,[Ebm]
Little [Dm]Ben is from h[G]eaven.[Dm][C#][C]
I asked the friendly neigh
[Dm]bours [C]all [F]over town,
[D]If they remembered Benny,
[G]come [F#dim]fallin' down
[Dm]But [F#dim]I must admit,
[Fm]becaus[Em]e it's true,[Ebdim]
he's a [Dm]cute little [G]laddie
[Dm]But [F]what[Db] I k[C]now about[G]
the [Csus4]birds and the[C] bees
[F]Kids have got to have daddies
And every [Fm]time I look at Benny
[Em]It's so very plain to see
[Am]That[A] Benny[Dm]'s from heaven
And not [G]from [Em]me me[C][F]
[C][Em]
