If you think I'm looking not a little glum

then let me say Buster

that you've got it right in one

When your circus days are done

you need to have a spot of fun

and not be lumbered with some bugger with a gun

will someone get this damn son-of-a-gun off my back?

if only I could I'd pack the bugger up in a tight little trunk

1898 - Little did Second Lieutenant 'Royal' Tank-Corps realise where his experimentation would lead.....the equipment has changed beyond all recognition, although the lingering smell is still a major feature of their manoeuvres.
