SPECULUM 75<br />

The Stately Homes <strong>of</strong> Carlton<br />

Tune: Stately Homes <strong>of</strong> England.<br />

The Stately Homes <strong>of</strong> Carlton<br />

Have blue lights at the gate.<br />

The public's always welcome,<br />

You never have to wait.<br />

As long as your money is in your hand,<br />

You'll find that an evening can soon be<br />

planned<br />

With a tasty little dish.<br />

You can choose between brunette, redhead<br />

or blonde,<br />

Any sort you wish.<br />

The Stately Homes <strong>of</strong> Carlton<br />

Have every kind on hand.<br />

From passionate to frigid,<br />

The best in all the land.<br />

As long as the Medical Faculty boasts<br />

A dozen virile men,<br />

We'll fight for the Stately Homes <strong>of</strong> Carlton.<br />

The Stately Homes <strong>of</strong> Carlton<br />

Supply the students' needs.<br />

And if you pay us promptly,<br />

We'll give you back your tweeds.<br />

For only a little extra,<br />

You can see what the other patrons do<br />

Through a peep-hole in the wall.<br />

You would be surprised at who you'll see<br />

in there;<br />

Lecturers and all!<br />

The Stately Homes <strong>of</strong> Carlton<br />

Have lots <strong>of</strong> girls on tap,<br />

And if you stick to us, sir,<br />

You'll never get the clap.<br />

The spirochaete just isn't see here,<br />

Which is one more reason why<br />

We'll fight for the Stately Homes <strong>of</strong><br />

Carlton.<br />

The Stately Homes <strong>of</strong> Carlton<br />

Are in the public eye,<br />

As long as there are men, sir,<br />

The sport will never die.<br />

Though ministers may denounce us,<br />

And policemen may pursue us,<br />

We shall be sure to have our way.<br />

While our girls remain as lovely as they are,<br />

The customers will pay.<br />

The Stately Homes <strong>of</strong> Carlton<br />

Are vital to the land,<br />

For if they were not with us<br />

Just think <strong>of</strong> the demand.<br />

With knot holes and post-holes and keyholes<br />

We should occupy our time,<br />

So we're proud <strong>of</strong> the Stately Homes <strong>of</strong><br />

Carlton.<br />

The Stately Homes <strong>of</strong> Carlton<br />

Are never at a loss;<br />

For if our girls don't please you,<br />

We'll let you have the boss.<br />

Although it's not customary,<br />

We could probably fix you up<br />

If you would prefer to have a male.<br />

Or if you require a little boy, or dog,<br />

We shall never fail.<br />

The Stately Homes <strong>of</strong> Carlton<br />

Have always been discreet,<br />

You'll find us close and handy<br />

Up every little street.<br />

Except for a murder once in a while,<br />

Your safety is assured,<br />

So we'll fight for the Stately Homes <strong>of</strong><br />

Carlton.<br />

All This And A Degree Too<br />

Tune: "Whoopee"<br />

Another year<br />

You're in the ward,<br />

The teaching's started<br />

Don't look so bored;<br />

You're in the clinics<br />

Amongst the cynics,<br />

Some call you Doctor.<br />

You palpate hearts<br />

And auscultate,<br />

You heard the murmurs?<br />

By George you're great;<br />

But then a voice said<br />

That patient's long dead,<br />

Send for a doctor.<br />

The setting's bright and airy<br />

Between the long white walls,<br />

Be careful that the fairies<br />

Don't souvenir your .. .<br />

Seeing patients<br />

Alive and dead,<br />

They're stuffing seaweed<br />

Into your head;<br />

But just remember<br />

When you're an ember,<br />

They called you Doctor.
