That's it! That's it! That's it!

I've been going barmy trying to remember the words of 'The Great Bell' (see
the posts elsewhere in this n/g...). Can you possibly help by filling in a
few gaps....???

This is what I've recalled so far:

The Great Bell

Sung by Marty Feldman (and          ; with           , piano)

In an old village called Churdlin-cum-Strandoe
*Whack! Whack! Half-day on Thursday*
They did have a church with a steeple so grand-o
*Foh diddle diddle eye doh, I hate my old mum*

For hundreds of years now, the bells in that steeple
*Whack! Whack! Egg, beans and sausage*
Had never been heard by the village's people
*Foh diddle diddle eye doh, may I leave the room?*

Rum tiddle tiddle tum tiddle tiddle, scum on the water,
lint in your navel and sand in your tea...

In old days the Squire had a beautiful daughter
*Whack! Whack! Nina and Frederik
She loved the poor Verger - and one night dad caught her
*Foh diddle diddle eye doh, superfluous hair*

"But I love him, dear dad!", she said (tears she was sheddin')
*Whack! Whack!
"Quite likely", said Father - and battered her head in
*Foh diddle diddle eye doh,

Rum tiddle tiddle tum tiddle tiddle, scum on the water,
lint in your navel and sand in your tea




"Would you mind taking your hand off my knee, Vicar? I'm trying to play the
piano...".


Ta!
