Now by request of Nevey, we unfortunatly are only allowed to sing this on a Friday afternoon as it was getting to disruptive. Also to Miss Hayes annoyence, we have to sing it with vocals. Which we got told off for practising to 'Surprise' Nevey. 8R also have a variation of Mr Parkinson's ever popular Freitag Man.
