  • first line (public domain):
    'Lads, you're wanted, go and help',
    On the railway carriage wall
    Stuck the poster, and I thought
    Of hands that penned the call.

    Fat civilians wishing they
    'Could go and fight the Hun.'
    Can't you see them thanking God
    That they're over forty-one?
