"You should see me dance the Polka, You should see me cover the ground, You should see my coat-tails flying, As I jump my partner round; When the band commences playing, My feet begin to go, For a rollicking romping Polka Is the jolliest fun I know."
George Grossmith"I left the room with silent dignity, but caught my foot in the mat."
George Grossmith
