Operation Mincemeat - Spilsbury Reprise

It's still London
We're still cockneys
But we've got new information!

Spilsbury
Remember Bernard Spilsbury
No?
There's been a slight alteration in his reputation
The nation's irate
I'm quite upset
He spits out errors
He pukes up lies
He's the kind of conman we despise!

It's Spilsbury
Spilsbury
That phony Bernard Spilsbury!

I thought I knew ev'rything about bodies
Spilsbury
My fall from grace has taken me by surprise
That con-man Spilsbury!
So what, I used to bluff
Disgrace!
When I didn't know my stuff
That face!
But now the scales have fallen from our eyes

I used to be revered by everybody
Spilsbury
But it turns out that I am a fraud
Sir Bernard Spilsbury!
My character's under fire
He's a scoundrel!
And a liar!
Agreed!
And everything I say should be ignored
