We did a dance session in a primary school and to break it up sang the Rochester recruiting sargent. When we asked the children what it was about very few had listened or understood - I'm not sure which - to tell us. We've not been able to repeat the experiment with adults but I suspect that few actually listen with any degree of intensity.

Would it matter to most if you did the verses in a random order? It would be an intersting experiment.
