(Trunchbull)

Look at these trophies

See how my trophies

gleam

in the sunlight,

see how they shine

What do you think it took

to become English

Hammer throwing champion

Nineteen si ty nine?

Do you think in that moment When

my big moment came

That I treated the rules

With casual disdain

Well,

LIKE HELL!

As I stepped up to the circle

did I change my plan?

Hmm...what?

As I chalked up my palms

did I wave my hands?

I DID NOT!

As I started my spin

did I look at the view?

Did I drift off and dream

for a minute or two?

Do you think I faltered

or amended my rotation?

Do you think I altered

my intended elevation?

As the hammer took off

did I change my grunt

From the grunt

I had practised for many a month?

Not a jot,

not a dot did I stray

from the plot

Not a detail of my

throw was adjusted or forgotten

Not even when the hammer

left my hands

And sailed up,

up above the stands

Did I let myself go?

No, no, no, no,

no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no...

No

If you want to throw

the hammer

for your country,

(la la la la)

You have to stay inside

the circle

all the time,

(na na na na na na)

And if you want to make

the team,

You don't need happiness

or self esteem,

You just need

to keep

your feet

inside the line.

Sing, children

2, 3, 4!

(Children and Trunchbull) If you want

to throw the hammer

(Trunchbull) for your country,

(Children) Bambinatum

est maggitum.

(Children and Trunchbull) You have

to stay inside

the circle

all the time.

(Children) Circulum!

Maggitum! Maggitum!

(Children: Ahh's)

(Trunchbull) And if you want to

teach success,

You don't use

sympathy or tenderness.

(Children: Tenderness)

You have to force the little

squits

to toe the line!

Sing, Jenny

2, 3, 4!

(Jenny) If you want to throw

the hammer for your country,

(Children)Bambinatum,

Bambinatum, Gloria Maggitum

(Jenny) You have

to stay inside

the circle all the time.

(Children)Circulum

e Deus, Deus.

(Trunchbull) Apply just one simple rule

To hammer throwing, life, and school

Life's a ball,

so learn to throw it.

Find the bally line

and toe it,

And always keep your feet

inside the line.

Now get out!
