Got an eye to Remembrance Sunday? :-)
The full 18th-century lyrics (which are interesting - I'd only ever known the first verse) are on Wikipedia at <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_British_Grenadiers#Lyrics>, and from that page there's a link to a RealPlayer (.ram) file of it being played by the Canadian Grenadier Guards at <http://www.collectionscanada.ca/obj/m2/f3/10399.ram>. -- Molly Mockford They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety - Benjamin Franklin (My Reply-To address *is* valid, though may not remain so for ever.)

I wasn't joking - I was smiling.
I'm all in favour of Remembrance Sunday; by focussing on the far-too-many individuals involved, it is more likely than most such events to remind everybody of the horrors and futility of war, and the young men and boys who were sent off to die deserve not to be forgotten. -- Molly Mockford They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety - Benjamin Franklin (My Reply-To address *is* valid, though may not remain so for ever.)

Truth to tell, I'm just putting the finishing touches to a military suite.
Is some talk of some, and Alexander aircraft; More harm from Isander, such big names as such. All the brave heroes in the world, which can not be compared With Qatar, and the implementation of the death penalty, executions, The death sentence on British Grenadiers.
Those heroes witnessed ne'er league ball defender, Or known of the powder to discount the story. But the boys did not know the courageous, and the elimination of all fears, Qatar singing, and the implementation of the death penalty, executions, The death sentence on British Grenadiers.
Whene'er a leadership storm barriers, With the leaders / Fosis, and we with a hand grenade. , Threw it around the slope of the enemy "and the ears of Qatar Singing, and the implementation of the death penalty, executions, The death sentence on British Grenadiers.
When the siege ended, and the city, and reform cry village, The children cheered, And here comes grenadier. Here comes Grenadiers, and the boys, who did not know doubts or fears, Qatar singing, and the implementation of the death penalty, The penalty, and sentenced to death by a British Grenadiers
And let us fill the models, and the drinking of Health Carrying bags and hats and clothing, loupèd and clothing; The leaders are happy living each year, With Qatar, and the implementation of the death penalty, executions, The death sentence on British Grenadiers.
