 And is it true? And is it true, / This most tremendous tale of all, / Seen in a stained-glass window's hue, / A Baby in an ox's stall?

 And now, dear Lord, I cannot wait/ Because I have a luncheon date.

 But I'm dying now and done for, / What on earth was all the fun for? / For I'm old and ill and terrified and tight.

 Childhood is measured out by sounds and smells and sights, before the dark hour of reason grows.

 Come, friendly bombs, and fall on Slough. / It isn't fit for humans now.

 Come, friendly bombs, and fall on Slough. / It isn't fit for humans now.

 I don't think I am any good. If I thought I was any good, I wouldn't be.

 I know what I wanted to ask you;/ Is trifle sufficient for sweet?

 Miss J. Hunter Dunn, Miss J. Hunter Dunn,/ Furnish'd and burnish'd by Aldershot sun.

 Now if the harvest is over, And the world cold, Give me the bonus of laughter, As I lose hold.

 Pam, I adore you, Pam, you great big mountainous sports girl / Whizzing them over the net, full of the strength of five.

 People's backyards are much more interesting than their front gardens, and houses that back on to railways are public benefactors.

 Phone for the fish-knives, Norman, / As Cook is a little unnerved; / You kiddies have crumpled the serviettes / And I must have things daintily served.

 Silver and ermine and red faces full of port wine.

 Spirits of well-shot woodcock, partridge, snipe / Flutter and bear him up the Norfolk sky.
