I posted the lyrics to this a while ago:
...and I didn't expect any videos from this album (Captain Lockheed and the Starfighters)!
And look, more stuff by Bob Calvert and Mick Farren too!

Officer: Are you sure that's not makeup.
Recruit: Makeup sir?
Officer: Makeup. Makeup. You know what makeup is. It's what ladies wear.
Recruit: Not all ladies wear makeup sir.
Officer: Well what's that black stuff around your eyes. Is that mascara?
Recruit: All right. I can see it's no good lying to you. I confess. It is mascara. Only a little bit.
Officer: What on Earth for?
Recruit: It's my mother sir.
Officer: Your mother?
Recruit: You see my mother was the first woman to fly the Atlantic in a (pause) Gaseo Glider.
Officer: A Gaseo Glider?
Recruit: A machine of my father's invention. You see he was too much of a professional aeronautical inventor to actually fly it himself, so my mother took it, and tried to fly it singlehanded across the Atlantic.
Officer: What happened?
Recruit: She...she crashed. Spun down into the sea and was never seen again. They found only her false eyelashes, floating. And so, you see, ever since I have worn mascara in her sacred memory.
