You won’t see any big parade There won’t be any bugle played Sad to say no war today 'Cause the general’s fast asleep Soldiers bold in a mighty row They’ve been told they're to fight the foe Sad to say no war today 'Cause the general’s fast asleep The colonel’s mad, and the major blue The captain’s sad and the sergeant too Guess this war will have to keep It’s enough to make an army weep Look oh look at his curly head Time to take him away to bed Sad to say no war today 'Cause the general’s fast asleep It seems an awful shame That his victory won't go down to fame Sandman's here to dim the light Little general, good night
