Thread Name: Lyr Add: The Bells of St Mary's (Furber/Adams)
Subject: RE: Lyr Add: The Bells Of St Marys
I seem to recall that there is also a military parody "The Balls of Sar'nt-Major"
I can's seem to lay hands on the book I saw it in, but IIRC it went along the lines

The balls of Sar'nt-Major are wrinkled and crinckled
Capacious and spacious as the dome of St Pauls
Crowd they do muster to gaze at the cluster
Of our Sergeant-Major's balls, balls, balls,balls, balls, balls,
(this last sung in a decending peal to imitate bells)

If I can find the details before this thread dissappears, I'll post them.

Regards

Walrus
