(Everybody E‑E-Everybody
Everybody E‑E-Everybody
Everybody E‑E-Everybody
Everybody jump to attention…)
Each morning after Sunblest
Feel the benefit, mental arithmetic
I waited by the staffroom
in time for benediction
Living a law just short of delusion
When we fall in love there’s confusion
This must be the place I waited years to leave
To our voices nobody’s listening
We shiver in the rain by the touchline
Then a coach ride to the station
‘My lord, the carriage awaiteth!’
