Anyone for Tennis?

Yay! it's Wimbledon fortnight... I love Wimbledon, as much for the tradition as for the tennis.

My only problem is actually getting to see the matches I want to watch.  Not because I'm not there, or they are not televised... no, it's worse than that.  For example, I sat down to watch Andy Murrey play his first round march against Nikolay Davydenko and (Oh! The shame of it) woke up just in time to see Murrey play the winning shot.  Short of turning to narcotics, I don't know what to do.  It doesn't seem to matter whether I'm tired or not.  These days if I want to see something all the way through, I have to half watch it while I'm on the computer.  Is it my age?  Did I tell you I'm 50 this year?

This is a tenous tenuous connection to the subject at hand, except for the first two lines including the word tennis, but this is one of my favourite, favourite, favourite songs ever.  I have put the lyrics below the video, so you can sing along and please do.... loud enough so that I can hear you from here if you don't mind.  Thanks very much.

Now, go watch it, go on, scoot, and Annonymous if you are there, if you fancy playing this for me on my birthday, I'll love you even more than I already do.

Dennis is a menace
With his "Anyone for tennis?"
And he'd beseech me to come keep the score
And Maude said, "Oh Lord, I'm so terribly bored"
I really can't stand it anymore...

I'm going...out to dinner
With a gorgeous singer
To a little place I found
Down by the key

Her name is Patricia
She calls herself delicia
And the reason isn't
Very hard to see

She said, God made her a sinner
Just to keep fat men thinner
As they tumble down in heaps
Before her feet

They hang around in groups
Like battle weary troops
One can often see them
Queue right down the street

You see, Patricia Or Delicia
Not only is a singer
She also removes all her clothing

For Patricia
Is the best stripper in town...

And with a swing of her hips
She started to strip
To tremendous applause
She took of her drawers

And with a lick of her lips
She undid all her clips
And threw it all in the air
And everybody stared

And as the last piece of clothing
Fell to the floor
The police were banging on the door
On a Saturday night
In 1924

Take it away boys...

Well, Patricia was arrested
And everyone detested
The terrible manner in which
she was exposed

Later on in court
where everyone thought
A summer's run in jail
would be proposed..

But the judge said Patricia
Or may I say Delicia
The facts of this case lie before me
(knock, knock, knock)
Case dismissed...
This girl was in her working clothes...

And with a swing of her hips
She started to strip
To tremendous applause
She took of her drawers

And with a lick of her lips
She undid all her clips
Threw it all in the air
And everybody stared

And as the last piece of clothing
Fell to the floor
The police were yelling out for more (more)
On a Saturday night
In 1924
