"Wilson" himself must have ordered our food
Beans, slum, tomatoes + rice quite a lot
The coffee was black to suit any mood
But well guaranteed to give you the "trot."
Wavy line drawn underneath.
Wasps in the jam for amusement were put
For many the hours that we had to spare
In side nut shells we'd find wasps for the
Even when "Dating" the wasps would be there
Wavy line drawn underneath.
We'd beautiful bath-rooms all painted white
Wash-bowls of silver, so large, clean + bright
Shower baths so private that no one could see
And always water as hot as could be.
Wavy line drawn underneath.
The M.D. and C.C. did quite a lot
In cheering we Waac's + making us smile
For every night round the camp they would trot
Kissing each other every little while
Wavy line drawn underneath.
The Cinima too, was crowded each nigh
night
Fancy dress parades we had by moon ligh
light
We'd Fox-trots + one steps all the night long
An "An Aching Heart" was our favourite song
(another little bit wont do you any harm so P.T.O).
