Not everyone would agree That fox hunting is a fair sport, But tomorrow we should all see If the old fella can just be caught Bright-eyed and with a bushy tail He´s sure to appear at the start, But if we can keep on his trail We should hunt him down before dark But we need to stay on his scent For he can be cunning, you know, Although when all energy is spent He may just end up lying low But in our own neck of the woods There aren´t many places to hide, So all the odds suggest we should Bag him and be back home inside... ..before you can say ´tally-ho´ But don´t be too sure of his skin, There´ll be no time to dally though If this chase we still hope to win And if we should just take this prize To keep us still well in the hunt, Well then, in most people´s eyes We could just be worth half a punt.

Why oh why was I worried when I saw the last word of line 2 of the final verse was 'hunt?' You would never dream of such a foul retort! Sorry RBF, some things just have to be said! Are we playing in 'hunting pinks?'
