THE WHOLE DUTY OF A COMPANY OFFICER

(i) The Offensive Spirit

Tune—“It’s the only, only way”

IF at night you see a Hun,
Be it many or just one,
Crawling out about the ground,
Don’t you make a single sound.
Watch him till you see him roll
Into a convenient hole,
Take your Mills, pull out the pin,
Then just lob it in.

It’s the only, only way,
It’s the only game to play,
He’s the only Bosche, and it’s only fair,
For you haven’t got any bombs to spare,
So you strafe him on the spot
With the only Mills you’ve got,
