On the first day of Christmas my clubmates all watched me, Misjudge the height of a tree. On the second day of Christmas my clubmates all watched me, Deadstick miles downwind And misjudge the height of a tree. On the third day of Christmas my clubmates all watched me, Lose orientation Deadstick miles downwind And misjudge the height of a tree. <snip/> On the twelveth day of Christmas my clubmates all watched me, Laugh at their misfortunes Dowse myself with glow-fuel Try to scrounge a glowplug Do a cartwheel landing Tip my chair o'er backwards Drop sandwich in to cowpat Smash my favourite thermos Bring the wrong wings Tip the nose on takeoff Lose orientation Deadstick miles downwind And misjudge the height of a tree.
