Don't put the Leopards on the stage down at Orpington, Don't put the Leopards on the stage We know that they appeal to the folk Hoi Polloi But us cognoscenti their antics just annoy, We have to concede that their writing skills are vast But their manner of delivery, it just leaves us aghast, Gosh, down in Orpington (Bosh! down in Orpington) Don't put the Leopards on the stage.
