Let's face it.

Derek Dick! hes not a bad lad. But the mullet and greasepaint was a tad iffy
Remember seeing them in Bristol Granary years ago

One I remember marching to...

Arsehole, arsehole, a soldier I will be,
To piss, to piss, two pistols on my knee,
A fart, a fart, a far to wander free,
A whore, a whore, a horse shall carry me,
Her arse, her arse, harass them in the dark,
Eat shit, eat shit, each hit will hit it's mark,
To fight for the сunt, to fight for the сunt, to fight for the count-er-y,
Fuck you, fuck you, for curiosity.

etc...

I've saved the best till last
classic !!
unbeatable
