When I was at school
They used to put me in running races
And I would run as fast as I could
But my little legs made limited progress
When we played rugby
If someone passed the ball to me
It was as if my hands and eyes
Weren't on speaking terms
They would give me things to throw
Stuff like javelins and things
But my arms were too short
To provide the necessary leverage
But when I was out on the streets
Whenever the cry went up of
"Leg it lads! "
I was uncatchable
