English Song Lyrics - October 2006

Widdicombe Fair
For I want to go to Widdicombe Fair
With Bill Brewer, Jan Stewer, Peter Gurney
Peter Day, Daniel Whiddon, Harry Hawk
Old Uncle Tom Cobleigh and all
Old Uncle Tom Cobleigh and all.

I am the Music Man
And I come from down your way
And I can play
What can you play?
I can play the piano, piano, piano
I can play the piano,
Pia - piano.
I am the very model of a modern Major-General
I've information vegetable, animal, and mineral
I know the kings of England, and I quote the fights historical
From Marathon to Waterloo, in order categorical
I'm very well acquainted, too, with matters mathematical
I understand equations, both the simple and quadratical
About binomial theorem I'm teeming with a lot o' news
With many cheerful facts about the square of the hypotenuse
With many cheerful facts about the square of the hypotenuse
With many cheerful facts about the square of the hypotenuse
With many cheerful facts about the square of the hypotepotenuse
(Chorus)
It's always more fun
to share with everyone.
It's always more fun
to share with everyone.
If you have two,
give one to your friend.
If you have three,
give one to your friend and me.
