Squeezewas a British rock music band that came to prominence in the new waveperiod of the late 1970s. The group formed in London in 1974. The two main writing partners in the band, Chris Diffordand Glenn Tilbrook, are widely considered to be among the finest melodic pop songwriters of their generation and have often been compared with the legendary Lennon-McCartney partnership, although unlike The Beatles, Difford and Tilbrook's direct collaboration on songs continued through most of the group's career. The original lineup of the band also included pianist Jools Holland, who went on to become a popular solo artist and bandleader, and is now best known as the host of the critically-acclaimed and highly successful British music TV show Later with Jools Holland. Squeeze's lineup in the 1980s also featured the lead vocals of Paul Carrack, who was also one of the lead singers of Mike & The Mechanicsas well as a solo artist.

Napoleon was very brave
Incomplete he took to his grave
Josephine was such a joke
Kept her letter inside his coat
V. van gogh was so I hear
One to send his love an ear
Some impression this would make
This was to be his big mistake
Catherine lost her pretty head
She wasnt very good in bed
Didnt wear a hat again
She got so wet out in the rain
I cant stop my heart from beating beating
Bang bang bang bang (bang bang bang bang)
I would like to be like peter peter
Pan pan pan pan (bang bang bang bang)
