Chairman:

Quick conclusions often lead the best of us astray.

The wisest move in life is just to wait.

Otherwise, your galloping emotions run away



Chairman, Durdles, Deputy:

Like horses at the gate.

Off to the races, off to the races

Off to the races we go!

But where the chase is

and what the pace is

We seldom seem to know.



Durdles:

Men with broken hearts have vowed to nevermore pursue

A member of the soft and savoured face

Firmly anchored to the ground, they suddenly will view



Durdles & Deputy:

A fair and favored face



Durdles, Deputy, & Chairman:

Then: off to the races, off to the races

Where flirting faces call!



Deputy &Chairman:

His saving grace is strong drink replaces

The need for love at all.



All:

Don't fall back on your assumptions -

Hasty presumptions might do you in!

Mind the track! Like a nag running blind.

Try lagging behind:

You'll find you'll win.



Chairman:

Bless our Queen Victoria, she's had nine kids to date

You wonder how Prince Albert got enthused!

Probably by her decree he had to procreate:

Said she, "Make me amused!"



All:

Off to the races, the royal races

The same as poor folk do!



Deputy:

When she embraces her royal graces

The same she wants as you



All:

And the race is won by the tardy Not the fool-hardy fools that we be!

Don't unlace your madcap abandon,

Do and you'll land undone,

Not me!



So we call upon you all to hold your

horse's reins

Before you solve this dickens of a crime!

Sometimes having patience is as good as having brains,

So take your bloody time!

Pour out the spirits, the end is near, it's only a length or so:

Don't begin to beat your tar off for the

finish isn't far off.

To the races!

Off to the race we go...Tally-ho
