the great escape

o horrors! where is vowles?

the senior manager howls -

but the van is packed and ready, on its way

you cannot call him back

he hasn’t got the sack

but vowles & co' are off to france today!

for this enterprising man

has got his caravan

and painted it in red and white and blue

not white and blue and red

but the other way round instead

‘cos that’s the way the french ones like it too.

so don’t forget your book

and give us one last look

and when you’ve crossed the channel, shout hooray!
