[MONTAGU] When the world is such a mess It’s hard not to feel depressed Getting stressed by what may come in time But life is much more pleasant when you’re living in the present So let’s raise another glass and feel sublime For come the dawn our plan might fall to bits When Adolf gets his claws in it And yes, we broke the law a bit That’s right But at least until tomorrow comes Why not believe that we have won? And just maybe have a little fun?
Charlie, let’s live it up tonight! So, just for tonight let’s be winners Who fin’lly did something right Our plan is signed, sealed, delivered And tomorrow it could all go wrong So Charlie let’s live it up tonight
[CHARLES] But, Monty, what if the sub gets hit? Or what if they realise that our documents-
[MONTAGU] Oh what if they realise our documents- Oh Charlie why do all this fretting? Read the room boy! Clock the setting! It’s no life if you’re forgetting to live
[CHARLES] I find it helps me feel prepared
[MONTAGU] To what? Just dwell on being scared? I say to hell with that hot air, man And give yourself some credit where there’s credit due Who made this plan?
[CHARLES] I did
[MONTAGU] Yes you! So celebrate your greatness Grab a gin! You’re too full of brains a plenty For your glass to feel half empty So let’s get another bottle

[MONTAGU] It’s your moment let’s embrace it Victory's so close we can taste it And some sweet release is what the people need Trust me Charles, there’s no point living if we cannot go down swinging Drop your bombs we’re off to dance until we bleed Excuse me, I’m meant to meet my brother here The great artiste owes me a beer He’s broke I don’t know how his films get made
[IVOR MONTAGU] With my comrades overseas I find that money grows on trees Just sell a secret and you’ll see that loose lips will get you paid Brother have you got something for me

[SUBMARINER 3, spoken] And we're just supposed to leave him out there?
[CAPTAIN, spoken] Those are our instructions
[LIEUTENANT] Do we even know his name?
[SUBMARINER 1] Ready to give the order, sir?
[CAPTAIN, spoken] Aye. Float him out. Close the main access hatch and then we'll dive. Thank you for your service, son
