Iron Maiden Mission from 'Arry Lyrics

...I mean, it doesn' matter 'oo it is, I mean, the message gets through.

Steve: (recorder clicks on mid-sentence)...anyways, 'e did not deserve to get a b______ing...
(recorder clicks on and off here)...the time, I know why 'e got a b______ing, because you, you know, you dunno what the f___ 'e's goin' on (someone speaks in background) about, but 'e didn', but 'e didn' deserve it. All 'e's tryin' t'do is relay a message from me to you, right? N' 'e went the wrong way about it, okay?

Nicko: Yeh, 'e did go the wrong way about it.

Steve: Really?

Nicko: Well I'm, I, I, I, I tell ya what, I mean it ain't gonna 'appen again.

Bruce: I don't see where you get steamed, I mean, if the truss was gonna...

Nicko: Why I got steamed up Bruce is because 'e f___ed me right up. N' I knew there was a problem, I still didn' know what it was even after 'e...I, I f___ed!

Steve: I know that. Look, it's like...

Nicko: I f___in' f___ed-up...n' I stopped, n' it was like "oh, for f___'s sake!" (tapping his foot as if playing drum solo) Come on kids, n' I'm lookin' 'round...what is 'e tryin' to tell me? What's the problem? (mumbles something unintelligible)

Steve: Can't you understand? Can't you understand if I'm tryin' to get a f___in' message through to ya, right?...I'd'a still...it'd a been a lot worse. If I, if I 'ad to go me gear done...as it 'appens, (snaps his fingers) just in the nick o' th'time I got it done. If I...

Nicko: Yeah, I still didn't get the message.

Steve: I know you didn'. But wha' we're sayin' (mumbles something unintelligible) wha'ever 'appens if I got 'im tryin' to get a f___in' message to ya. Y'know wha' I mean?

Nicko: Sure Steve, but the fact is that the guy was not 'andling it the right way.

Steve: You don' fink o' fings like that Nick.

Nicko: But that's diff...look...(something completely unintelligible)

Steve: I b______ed...I was shou'ing at ya, "look, my gear's gone down".

Nicko: It's me that f___ed-up.

Steve: Listen...

Nicko: I'm the one out the(r)e all on me own...

Steve: I know.

Nicko: ...I'm doin' a drum solo. N' I've got f___in' talkin'...

Steve: N' I'm the one, I'm only one 'a finking, I've got f___ing like a minute t'go before m..., to get this f___ing gear right.

Bruce: Yeah, but if somebody gives a message to me...

Steve: No?

Bruce: And it doesn't matter who he is, I mean, did the message... (incomprehensible)

Nicko: Bruce, it's different...

Steve: It's a different situation.

Nicko: ...it's different for you. You're not standin' there all on your f___in' own 'avin' a somebody try to get your attention n' talk to ya. I'm playin' a drum solo, n' the guy's standin' a yard, or two yards behind my drum riser goin'...

Steve: Yeah, all I'm tryin' a...

Nicko: ..."f___ing anga-yangna-baba"..."wha?"..."BABA-BABA-BABA!"..."WHAAAA???". f___! (lets out frustrated grunt) By the time I've got that far, I'm f___in' totally f___ed. Because I'm p..., I'm not payin' attention to my gig...

Steve: Ey, look...

Nicko: ...I'm payin' attention to what 'e's tryin' to tell me.

Bruce: Yeh, but nobody woulda noticed.

Steve: I complete...

Nicko: I noticed!

Steve: I completely understand that.

Nicko: f___ed me right up.

Steve: But 'e, 'e was only doin' wha I told 'im t'do, n' that was get a message t'you. Now that the f___ing 'eat o' the moment n' just, everything on 'and...'e don' fink to f___ing tell Bill, 'e wants to get the message t'you, not to f___ing Bill, so 'e don' fink o' that, 'e just tries to get the message t'you, right? So, 'e don' f___ing deserve to get a b______ing for that, I mean, arright 'e got one I know...no say in 'at. But I just don', you know...

Bruce: (possibly saying "Attente! Attente!")

Steve: ...Bob was a nice guy. 'E's not like 'e's, f___in', 'e's an a__hole...

Nicko: No, no...

Steve: ...or an idiot, or anyfing like 'at.

Nicko: Oh no, but 'e was out of order, because 'e didn'...

Bruce: 'E wasn't out of order.

Nicko: "E was.

Steve: 'E wasn't out of order. 'E was wrong.

Nicko: 'E was, 'cause 'e f___ed me up by tryin to tell me...

Steve: Nicko.

Nicko: If 'e'd o' come up to the riser...

Steve: Nicko.

Nicko: Look...

Steve: Nicko.

Nicko: ...if 'e'd o' come up to the riser dere, (shouting) I COULDA f___IN' 'EARD 'IM!!!

Steve: But nick...

Nicko: c___ was standin' be'ind, I was sittin' down.

Steve: Yeh...

Nicko: ..."bada-bada-ba"

Steve: 'E was wrong. 'e made a mistake, but 'e wasn't out of order.

Bruce: It wasn't deliberate.

Steve: 'E made a mistake...

Nicko: Now, I know it ain't deliberate.

Steve: ...for f___'s sake.

Nicko: I didn' know that at the time, right? I still didn't that know Steve 'ad a problem wif 'is bass...

Steve: That's wha' I'm sayin'.

Nicko: ...luckily enough, by the time I finished the poxy solo,'e 'ad 'is bass wo(r)kin' again.

Steve: It was all that f___ing grief...

Bruce: All it takes is the guy...

Nicko: The grief was, because I b______ed 'im up, n' I 'appened to tell ya (something unintelligible) go out n' apologize right. f___ 'im, I'm gonna go n' apologize to 'im.

Bruce: Well all you gotta do...

Nicko: It's not for me to apologize. I b______ed 'im 'cause 'e f___ed me up. Right there, 'e f___ed me up. 'E was wrong.

Bruce: All you gotta do...no 'e wasn't wrong.

Nicko: 'E was.

Steve: 'E wasn't wrong.

Nicko: 'E did not 'andle it...'e's not even f___in' communicating, right?

Steve: Aw! I don' wanna f___in' argue about this, it's f___ing stupid...I fink you're really out of order, I fink...honestly.

Nicko: No b______s! Oh I am no(t) out of order.

Steve: You are. You're a'itude is out of order.

Nicko: 'E...no it ain't.

Steve: It is.

Nicko: No it ain't. The guy f___ed me up.

Steve: I know 'e did...

Nicko: Well then that's out of order...

Steve: ...'e din' mean to.

Nicko: (close to hysteria) LOOK, I'M NOT SAYIN 'E (Nicko hits something) f___IN' MEANT TO 'ARRY!!!
(Steve and Bruce say something in background)
The fact is that 'e was a dumbkopf, 'cause 'e don' know 'ow to f___in' communicate wif me onstage...

Bruce: But 'e's not a dumbkopf.

Steve: (?) Not close (?)

Nicko: Aww!

Steve: 'E's not f___in' stupid.

Nicko: Well, 'e f___in' certainly did a good job out there this afternoon, didn' 'e?

Steve: 'E made a mistake, because I...

Nicko: Wha'd'you mean "He made a mistake"?

Steve: Because I...

Nicko: You sent 'im. 'Ow could 'e make a mistake?

Steve: That's why.

Nicko: 'Ow did 'e make a mistake?

Steve: Well, 'e made the mistake by not sendin' Bill first, right?

Nicko: Well, well 'e made a mistake, right?

Steve: Yeah.

Nicko: Well, why?...

Bruce: There's a difference between makin' a mistake...

Steve: Well that's what I'm sayin'.

Bruce: ...n' a difference between makin' a human error...

Nicko: Right, so 'e made a mistake, right?

Steve: Yeah!

Nicko: N' I'm griefed up 'cause 'e f___in' made me made a mistake. Now that 'e...now I can understand wha' 'e was talkin' about after the fact...it remains to be seen, 'e was on a mission from you.

Steve: Aw, I'm not gonna argue about it.

Nicko: Right? (it gets quiet for a second) f___ my ol' boots, it just...I can't 'an, I can't 'andle that situation wif people (something about grief)... n it's important to me t'get a message like that...f___in' 'ell! I cannot get some...get, get...when' I also f___ed as well...I wouldna minded if I'd 'a gotten wha' it was 'appenin' straight. Like, on the end "aw right, 'Arris got 'is bass f___ed, right I'll carry on n' do sumfing else", then that's fine, if I didn' f___-up...but 'e made me f___. It totally frew me right out, n' 'e wasn'...

Steve: I know it did.

Nicko: ...'e didn't know 'ow to talk to me about it. N', n' I've, I've told 'im "don't do that again."

Steve: Because, see, it's not, it's not, it's not fair relaying a message to people. 'E was just...

Nicko: N' 'e never turned 'round.

Steve: ...look, it coulda been anybody. It was just that 'e was the first one on 'and.

Nicko: 'Arry.

Steve: 'E was just standin' there.

Nicko: 'E never turned 'round, 'e never even turned 'round afterwards and said "Listen, did you?...I'm sorry, but you didn' understand wha' I was sayin' right?"

Steve: Well why should he?

Nicko: Well then, then, then because...

Steve: 'E got a f___in' b______ing.

Nicko: ...'e woulda stood up for 'imself because 'e knows 'e was gotten a b______ing wrong, because 'e was on a mission from you.

Steve: 'E was probably...

Bruce: No.

Steve: 'E was probably f___in' upset...

Bruce: 'E's probably a bit upset.

Steve: ...because you gave 'im a f___ing b______ing.

Nicko: Well, rightly.

Steve: You gave 'im up for...as far as 'e's con...

Bruce: No, not rightly.

Nicko: Rightly, yeah.

Steve: But no, it's not rightly.

Bruce: No!

Nicko: I told 'im "DON'T EVER DO THAT AGAIN!"

Steve: No.

Bruce: That's crazy.

Steve: But what?...

Bruce: What 'appens if the lighting truss is gonna fall down on yer 'ead? Does 'e go?...

Nicko: Well then somebody drags me out o' the f___in' way, or else I'm dead, right?

Bruce: Yeah, but don't...I mean...you know.

Steve: I fink your a'itude is totally f___ing out of order.

Nicko: No it ain't. No it ain't.

Steve: Yes it is.

Nicko: No it ain't. If I'd 'a known...now I'm the f___in' c___ all of a sudden.

Steve: No, you're not the c___.

Bruce: You're not a c___.

Nicko: Because I told 'im 'e was out of order, n' I didn't know 'e was on a mission from you to tell me that 'is bass, your bass was f___ED!

Steve: I know you didn'.

Bruce: All you've got to do Nicko, is just go to the guy and say...

Steve: You didn' know, n' 'e didn' know, arright?

Bruce: "Sorry about, sorry about shouting. It was a misunderstanding. But in future, tell Bill" that's all you gotta say.

Nicko: No. No.

Bruce: N' that way, he's a f___in' proud geezer...

Steve: Wha's, wha's the ma'er with ya?

Bruce: He goes...

Nicko: Look...

Steve: 'Cause if this is some sorta (pride/crime?)...(something unintelligible)

Nicko: I b______ed 'im...no it ain't pride. It's, it's not f___in' pride.

Steve: Well wha's the ma'er wif ya?

Bruce: It is pride.

Nicko: Oh b______s!

Steve: What's the matter wif ya?

Nicko: The guy was wrong to 'ave been f___in' dere to do wha' 'e done.

Steve: I know. All I'm, all I'm gonna say is that when you're goin' up tomorrow...

Bruce: No it isn't wrong. What's 'e supposed to do? Turn 'round...

Steve: ...this is a different a'itude, 'cause this is f___ing stupid.

Nicko: I told 'im straight out not to do it again.

Bruce: What's 'e supposed to do? What's 'e?...

Nicko: I'm not gonna go out n' apologize for sayin' that to 'im...

Bruce: 'E's NOT!

Nicko: ...'e was outta f___in' order.

Bruce: 'E's not out of order.

Bruce: Wha' 'appens...

Nicko: Bruce.

Bruce: ...if I f___ing go n' tell somebody to do somethin', 'e goes "No, f___ off! I'm not gonna do that."

Nicko: Listen, Bruce...

Bruce: Then 'e's out of order.

Nicko: Bruce...

Bruce: But 'e goes n' tells 'im to go n' do something...

Nicko: ...I'm not concerned wif, wif, wif, wif, wif other people that can't f___in' talk to me on stage, who don't know 'ow to f___in' communicate wif me...

Bruce: But 'e's not out of order tryin' to do it.

Nicko: ...'e did not know 'ow to communicate wif me.

Steve: (walking towards tape recorder) Some c___'s recording this!
(tape shuts off)
