McIntyre's dim, looms loud in the gym
Waltzing with fear in our hearts
A twelve year old partner to guide
McIntyre tore us apart
We've only got a little short song
Well, we've only got a little short song
Waltzing with fear in our hearts
In the arena the ladies were waiting
I'm just doing the secondary waltz
It’s getting much closer to D day
And we danced with ourselves
You’ll be slippered if you get it one
When we’d all find a space
And you see that my footwork is false
When we’d all find a space
And a fat girl got left at the side
When you come to my face
This time we're gonna do it with girls
And we danced with ourselves
Out on the gymnasium floor
All of our heads are a whirl
A fat girl got left at the side
And it's 1, 2, 3, 2, 2, we’re all a disgrace
And it's 1, 2, 3, 2, 2, we’re all a disgrace
Waltzing with fear in our hearts
Out on the gymnasium floor
McIntyre’s out of the army
Don't count me out at the start of the bow
McIntyre’s teaching us waltzing
This time we're gonna do it with girls
Comes the day of the big final manoeuvres
Some matches were fixed, the rest of us mixed
Waltzing with fear in our hearts
And I am under the lights
McIntyre tore us apart
