To the sweetest girl I know.

Goodbye Piccadilly,

Farewell Leicester Square,

It's a long, long way to Tipperary,

But my heart's right there.

Pack up your Troubles

Pack up your troubles
In your old kit bag and            

Smile, smile, smile.

While you've a Lucifer

To light your fag.

Smile boys, that’s the style

What’s the use of worrying.                                                                                                         

It never was worthwhile.

So, pack up your troubles

In your old kit bag and

Smile, smile, smile

Pack up your troubles
In your old kit bag and            

Smile, smile, smile.

While you've a Lucifer

To light your fag.

Smile boys, that’s the style

What’s the use of worrying.

It never was worthwhile.

So, pack up your troubles                                                                                                                                     

In your old kit bag and

Smile, smile, smile

APPLAUSE! SOLOIST COMES FORWARD

ONLY REMEMBERED 2C

Fading away like the stars in the morning

Losing their light in the glorious sun

Thus shall we pass from this earth and its toiling

Only remembered for what we have done

Only remembered, only remembered

Only remembered for what we have done

Thus shall we pass from this earth and its toiling

Only remembered for what we have done

Only the truth that in life we have spoken

Only the seeds that in life we have sown

These shall pass onwards when we are forgotten

Only remembered for what we have done

Only remembered, only remembered

Only remembered for what we have done

Thus shall we pass from this earth and its toiling

Only remembered for what we have done

Who'll sing the anthem and who'll tell the story

Will the line hold will it scatter and run

Will we at last be united in glory

Only remembered for what we have done

Only remembered, only remembered

Only remembered for what we have done

Thus shall we pass from this earth and its toiling

Only remembered for what we have done

Only remembered for what we have done
