Lyrics
JIM
No stoping us now, Sylv.
We are going to show them how a prison really should be run.
Cos if the powers that be
In all their wisdom agree
No other candidate
Can swing that gate like me?
OFFICERS
The future is bright again
The world is black and white again
We're key happy, toe-tappy
Never thought that we'd be - so happy
One of our boys has made it
Shining like a star
Staking his claim
Making his name
Jim you will go far
JIM
The future is mine again
I'm swinging from a vine again
Lord and master of a new day
Hold on fast
We'e on the runway
Here at last
And I'll be here to stay
OFFICERS
Your loyal army salutes you, Sir.
SYLVIA
I must say, that suit really suits you, Sir.
JIM
Come in
Pull a seat up
Put your feet up
This is how it's gonna be
The witch is gone
And from now on
The man of the moment is me
Now it's cream cakes without warning
SYLVIA
Tea breaks that last all morning
JIM & SYLVIA
No, it's not a dream
But the start of our new regime
OFFICERS
It's looking good - It's looking good
It's looking great - It's looking great
We're getting rid - We're getting rid
We couldn't wait - We couldn't wait
Let's go? We're on our way now
We know? He's here to stay now
Hey Ho? Everything is gonna be OK now
One of our boys has made it
No one else could compare
Holding the flame
Playing the game
Who said we'd play fair?
The deed is done - The deed is done
It's in the bag - It's in the bag
The battle's won - The battle's won
Put up the flag - Put up the flag
We're gonna spread a little happiness all over the place
Locking up the losers with a smile on our face
Nothing's gonna stop us now we're back on the case
And now
Jim look who's the big cheese now!
OFFICERS
It's looking good - It's looking good
It's looking great - It's looking great
We're getting rid - We're getting rid
We couldn't wait - We couldn't wait
Let's go? We're on our way now
We know? He's here to stay now
Hey Ho? Everything is gonna be OK now
JIM
The future is bright again
The world is banged to right again
I'm key happy, toe-tappy
Never thought that I'd be - so happy
OFFICERS
One of our boys has made it
No one else could compare
Holding the flame
Playing the game
Who said we'd play fair?
JIM
Here I stand
With all the world at my feet
Just like I always planned
Victory is sweet
OFFICERS
The deed is done - The deed is done
It's in the bag - It's in the bag
The battle's won - The battle's won
Put up the flag - Put up the flag
We're gonna spread a little happiness all over the place
Locking up the losers with a smile on our face
Nothing's gonna stop us now we're back on the case
Today
JIM
The future is mine again
I'm swinging from a vine again
Lord and master of a new day
Hold on fast
We're on the runway
Here at last
And I'll be here to stay
For the glorious
OFFICERS
Unmistakable
JIM
Victorious
OFFICERS
Still unbreakable
JIM & OFFICERS
P? O? A!
