Down at the school house at runcorn
The eadmaster walked in one day
Looking all appy and cheerful
Which wasn't his habit they say
The boys were completely dumbfounded
And whispered hello what's to do
But the headmaster still went on smiling
And said boys I've some good news for you
It's like this today is my birthday
So it's no time for classes and such
You can go but the boys were too staggered
To even say thanks very much
They could scarcely believe their own earoles
As they welcomed these tidings so bright
But soon they all cheered to the echo
And very near busted with delight
Said headmaster now there's no hurry
Before very long you'll be free
But seeing as how it's me birthday
How old would you take me to be
Well the boys didn't like this delaying
And one of the younger ones swore
At the silly old fool of a master
And the satisfied smile that he wore
He didn't swear any too loudly
Or he'd have been out on the mat
For calling the master a silly old beggar
Or something that sounded like that
I bet you won't guess it correctly
The headmaster went on with a wink
Couse I've got a sort of a notion
I'm not quite as old as you think
A new boy jumpeel up and guessed twenty
In the hopes that he'd get off for a week
While another one guessed ninety seven
Although with his tongue in his cheek
Said the headmaster don't let's be funny
Or you'll be here all day I can see
So who'll give a serious guess now
Come onjust between you and me
Then in walked the junior tutor
In a very old mortar board hat
He said I hear there's a game on
Well I'd like a basin of that
Said the headmaster mind your own business
And kindly do not interfere
Or you'll lose half your rasher of bacon
And all your allowance of beer
The tutor said don't be a cad sir
I don't wish to make any noise
But you might at least try to be sporting
If only in front of the boys
With that he swept out of the classroom
Fearing the look that he saw
For he knew that in less than two seconds
He'd get such a sock in the jaw
Then in came the language professor
French teaching was one of his jobs
So he bowed to the head and said Bonjour
And the head said bonjour avec knobs
But if you've come here to give lessons
You can take it from me it's no bon
Because today's a holiday savvy
So you might as well aIlez vous en
Then a small voice called sir why it's easy
Forty four is your age I should say
Said the master now what a remarkable thing
You've guessed my right age to the day
Said the boy Well my brother is just twenty two
Said the headmaster What's that to me
Well Sir if he's twenty two you must be forty four
Couse he's only half barmy see
Then the whole class joined in the school anthem
Which nobody wanted to shirk
For he's a jolly good fellow
So long as we don't have to work
