lyrics

BENTOOOOOOOORNNNNNN
Benton is out of retirement,
Sent by the UN on a mission to Russia,
Sgt Benton is not over the hill,
And he's off the leash in the Kremlin

Benton is out of retirement
Benton is out of retirement
With a pack of docile Ogrons...

The Genevan Candidate...
The Salisbury Candidate...
The UNIT tomtit... He's a right unit...
Come in trap one, come in trap one...
Come in greyhound, GREYHOUND LEADER
LEADER!
Come in TRAP ONE, you're clobbered

He wasn't sent by the UN
He's there under his own steam
And he's off his chump
UNIT? He's a right unit...
We read you, over...
You're over... the hill of jurisdiction

He's thrown in his lot with the Ogrons
Oi oi oi, the Ogrrrrreoooooons...!
Sergeants, Benton, have a way of falling down...
Sergeant Bentons have a way of falling down.
