[Verse 1] Oh the plane is over Sanhok and the morning is divine! Every chute a little flower blooming gently on the vine! There's a paradise below me and it's calling out my name And I cannot WAIT to play this absolutely lovely game! "Tally-ho!" [Verse 2} I shall drop on dear old Bootcamp where the loot is oh so sweet With a Beryl in my pocket and a spring beneath my feet! There's a fellow in the doorway and he's looking rather lost (BANG) Oh dear me, I've shot him — what a TERRIBLE cost! (beat) Just kidding! I feel WONDERFUL! [Chorus] SANHOK! SANHOK! Oh the joy that I have found! Sanhok! Sanhok! Where the bodies hit the ground! Every bullet is a blessing, every kill a little song Come and join me in the jungle where we ALL belong! [Verse 3] Down to Paradise Resort with a skip and with a hop! There's a sniper in the tower but I simply CANNOT stop! I shall toss a little frag into his lovely little nest (BOOM) And we'll sing about the pieces as they scatter east and west! (spoken, breathless): "Did you SEE that?! Oh I'm having SUCH a day!" [Verse 4] There's a man inside a bamboo hut, he's hiding from the sun And he doesn't even know that I am coming with my gun And I'll smile when I find him and I'll smile when he falls And I'll smile as I'm humming and I'm painting all the walls (harmonies, sweet and twinkly): "Painting all the walls…" [Chorus] SANHOK! SANHOK! Where the dreams come true today! Sanhok! Sanhok! Where the corpses point the way! Every footstep is a flourish, every headshot is a kiss Oh I never want to leave this lovely lovely place like THIS! [Bridge] Some folks say I'm not quite right That my smile is just a touch too bright But when I'm out beneath the sun With my rifle and my chicken dinner won (building, swelling) I have never felt so ALIVE! I have never felt so FREE! And the jungle and the bullets And the bodies sing to ME! [Verse 5] Final circle Kampong, just a fella and a me! Bamboo wall between us and I'm giggling with glee! He shoots — I shoot — we shoot — he drops — I WIN — (orchestra hit) Oh the CHICKEN DINNER feeling, let the credits roll again! [Final chorus] SANHOK! SANHOK! Oh the joy that I have found! Sanhok! Sanhok! Where the bodies hit the ground! I will come back tomorrow and the day after as well For this lovely little jungle is my very FAVOURITE hell! [Outro] Oh Sanhok! Sweet Sanhok! I'll be seeing you again! (orchestral sting, cymbal crash) (spoken, breathless whisper): "Same time tomorrow, darling?"
