Dancing to the Tune of the Morrismen

Dance Dance Dance ladies and gentlemen,

Dance away to your hearts’ content.

‘Tis time for the Morris dance,

stepping rhythmically,

wearing bell pads

tinkling to and fro

waving handkerchiefs

brandishing swords

holding sticks

and dance, dance, dance.

Dance until Christmas

And then we go a mummering,

Performing St. George and the Dragon

At each other’s homes,

Dancing,

joking,

reciting,

and above all,

eating.
