Comes the day of the final manoeuvres

All of our heads are a whirl

It's getting much closer to D-Day

This time we're gonna do it with girls

This time we're gonna do it with girls



In the arena the ladies were waiting

A twelve year old partner to guide

Some matches were fixed

The rest of us mixed

And a fat girl got left at the side

The fat girl got left at the side
