Edgy Productions - Boy, That's Bound To Itch Lyrics




Verse 1 Nearly three thousand years ago,
The Ancient Greeks said, "Hey!
We want to honour our god Zeus -
We think we've found a way!"
The first Olympic Games
Brought athletes in from near and far.
The place where they met up, of course,
Was called Olympia!
Spoken All very grand, but........

Chorus Everyone competed naked,
In the buff, without a stitch!
They were starkers on the starting line,
And nudey on the pitch!
But baring all in public
Didn't come without a hitch,
'Cause sand and dust get everywhere,
And boy, that's bound to itch!

Verse 2 First they held just a sprinting race
But that was over, fast!
Then more events were added
As the years went quickly past.
Like wrestling, boxing, long jump,
Javelin and discus throw.
And racing chariots, for those
Who dared to have a go!
Spoken Quite impressive, but........

Chorus Everyone competed naked.....

Verse 3 While the games were in flow
A special truce was put in place,
So city-states who were at war
Could have some breathing space!
And laurel wreaths, like medals,
Were awarded to the best....
Much easier to wear them
On your head than on your chest!
Spoken The reason being........

Chorus Everyone competed naked.....
