One just knows that Phil and the German woman in Buck House used to do "It" to this tune.

Sung at most rugby-playing public schools in the 70s & 80s.....
Cecil went down to the river
Cecil went down to the stream
And after half an hour
Cecil was covered in cream
But we're all queers together,
So none of us really cares
And if you'll please excuse me, we've something to do upstairs
If I had a sixpence
I'd nail it to the floor
And when you bent down to nab it
I'd be hiding behind the door
But we're all queers together,
So none of us really cares
And if you'll please excuse me, we've something to do upstairs -
It's quite a beautiful piece. Shame the place has produced such unconscionable, irresponsible prats in recent times. Boris claims his 200k from the Telegraph is "small change". Quite. But a gentleman would never say such a thing. Far less an Etonian. Noblesse oblige, and all that. My God. The oiks turned out these days.....

Let's All Sing Together
Play Up Sky Blues
While we sing together
We Will never lose
Tottenham or Chelsea
United or anyone
(anyone)
They shan't defeat us
we'll fight til the game is won
CITY! CITY! CITY! -
Jolly boating weather,
And a hay harvest breeze,
Blade on the feather,
Shade off the trees,
Swing swing together,
With your bodies between your knees,
Swing swing together,
With your bodies between your knees.
Skirting past the rushes,
Ruffling o'er the weeds,
Where the lock stream gushes,
Where the cygnet feeds,
Let us see how the wine-glass flushes,
At supper on Boveney meads,
Let us see how the wine glass flushes,
At supper on Boveney meads.
Thanks to the bounteous sitter,
Who sat not at all on his seat,
Down with the beer that's bitter,
Up with the wine that's sweet,
And Oh that some generous "critter",
Would give us more ducks to eat!
Carving with elbow nudges,
Lobsters we throw behind,
Vinegar nobody grudges,
Lower boys drink it blind,
Sober as so many judges,
We'll give you a bit of our mind.
"Dreadnought" "Britannia" "Thetis",
"St George" "Prince of Wales" and "Ten",
And the eight poor souls whose meat is,
Hard steak, and a harder hen,
But the end of our long boat fleet is,
Defiance to Westminster men.
Rugby may be more clever,
Harrow may make more row,
But we'll row for ever,
Steady from stroke to bow,
And nothing in life shall sever,
The chain that is round us now,
And nothing in life shall sever,
The chain that is round us now.
Others will fill our places,
Dressed in the old light blue,
We'll recollect our races,
We'll to the flag be true,
And youth will be still in our faces,
When we cheer for an Eton crew,
And youth will be still in our faces,
When we cheer for an Eton crew.
Twenty years hence this weather,
May tempt us from office stools,
We may be slow on the feather,
And seem to the boys old fools,
But we'll still swing together,
And swear by the best of schools,
But we'll still swing together,
And swear by the best of schools.
Ordinarily only the first, sixth, seventh and eighth stanzas are sung. -
Pretty grainy photos - looks like they were taken through a potato. Considering how much it costs to send a chap there one would have thought one could have afforded a decent camera, what? :P . But that's the English "elite" for you - tight fuckers really, behind all that superior bullshit. ;)

Burn it down. Vile anachronism of privilege and wealth.

What a beautiful melody

RIP Jimmy Hill CTID.

Thanks to John Derbyshire for bringing this jolly good tune to my attention. This is also a good tune to sing whist fighting the mooslems and the antifascists.
