  • They took old Danny Boy for a ride
    From the arms of his bride to be
    Threw him into the murky waters
    By the dog biscuit factory
    Quick dry the tears and stifle cheers
    As he sinks just like a stone
    Footprints set in sentimental cement
    Now burden down his bones
    Lest we forget
    Here lies the Great unknown
    My my my Delilah
    Who's the butcher that you harbour
    Take the rich man to the cleaners
    And the strong man to the barber
    From her face down to her torso
    Sort of gruesome only more so
    Hooks and eyes, fingers and thumbs
    Ladies and gentlemen here she comes
    The Great unknown
    Where shall we sing
    At a wedding or a wake
    Whose name shall we cherish
    And for whose sake
    Now this year's cannon fodder
    Tell the future general's jokes
    They were keeping the home fires burning
    As we slipped out for a smoke
    Though the VIP's sang "Wooden Heart"
    The band played "Hearts of Oak"
    (Chorus)
    And here comes the day I shall perish all alone
    Say here lies the Great unknown
  • They took old Danny Boy for a ride
    From the arms of his bride to be
    Threw him into the murky waters
    By the dog biscuit factory
    Quick dry the tears and stifle cheers
    As he sinks just like a stone
    Footprints set in sentimental cement
    Now burden down his bones
    Lest we forget
    Here lies the Great unknown
    My my my Delilah
    Who's the butcher that you harbour
    Take the rich man to the cleaners
    And the strong man to the barber
    From her face down to her torso
    Sort of gruesome only more so
    Hooks and eyes, fingers and thumbs
    Ladies and gentlemen here she comes
    The Great unknown
    Where shall we sing
    At a wedding or a wake
    Whose name shall we cherish
    And for whose sake
    Now this year's cannon fodder
    Tell the future general's jokes
    They were keeping the home fires burning
    As we slipped out for a smoke
    Though the VIP's sang "Wooden Heart"
    The band played "Hearts of Oak"
    (Chorus)
    And here comes the day I shall perish all alone
    Say here lies the Great unknown
