The Pact

Original version (2:55)

This is our pact,
This is our Entente cordiale,
When they attack
– And you can be sure that they shall –
We shall without delay
Come to each others aid, Each others aid
And man the barricades together.

This is our pact,
This is the treaty that we’ve signed.
What one may lack,
The other party will provide.
And everyone must know
– You mess with one, you mess with both – You mess with one, you mess with both
And together we’ll beat the bastards back,
This is our pact.

A bond born of brotherhood, A bond born of brotherhood,
A friendship forged in fire, A friendship forged in fire,
To benefit the common good, To benefit the common good,
And further our desires. And further our desires.
A special relationship, a meeting of the minds,
Two proud and sovereign nations sit together side by side.

This is our pact
And we will come when duty calls.
No turning back,
It’s all for one and one for all.
And though the world may try
To come between us by and by, To come between us by and by
Together we’ll beat the bastards back,
This is our pact.
Yeah this is our pact.
This is our pact.
