Its time for a round of Gilwell

[BrentAllen 10]

I used to be a Fox

and a good ole Fox too,

But now I've finished Foxing

I don't know what to do

I'm growing old and feeble

And I can Fox no more

So I'm going to work my ticket if I can.

 

Back to Gilwell, Happy Land!

I'm going to work my ticket if I can.

 

[BDPT00 41]

everybody else: 0

 

So far. Next?

and a good old Owl too,

But now I've finished Owling

I don't know what to do,

Be sure to look it up. You'll need to print it, because nobody will believe you.

Interestingly enough, I did look it up in my official "Wood Badge Songbook" that I was required to carry on my person at all times at NE-II-192...ee

And a good ol' Bear too,

But now I've finished Bearing..."

Good ... so you won't have to go find it somewhere else. Good luck now trying to get your staff to sing it properly. (next we'll work on the tune)

Thanks for checking,
