Turning to the hat-stand
He solemnly declares,
"Everything you've said is right -
Coats should be on chairs.
Only caps and kepis,
Little bonnets too,
Ought to have the right to hang
Naughtily from you".
Ending with this lecture to the soldiers gathered round:
"Look out for nude Turags - they're all mentally unsound"!
Enter army medics with their
Stretcher at the ready.
"Colonel, you're to come with us
As you're quite unsteady".
Reaching for his Prit-Stick, our hero then reacts -
Glueing pics of Doris Day, sideways
On their hats.
Three cheers for the Colonel, (he's less sensible than bats!)
