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-sixty-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 practiced 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
You have to stay inside the circle all the time
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
If you want to throw the hammer for your country
Habinot est magitem
You have to stay inside the circle all the time
Circular magitem magitem
And if you want to teach success
Aaah
You don't use sympathy or tenderness
Tenderness
You have to force the little squits to toe the line
Sing jenny 2 3 4
If you want to throw the hammer for your country
Regotem regotem varia magitem
You have to stay inside the circle all the time
Tempero es te iste is
Circulum Magitum Magitum
Deus Gloria
Apply just one simple rule
To hammer-throwing life and school
Lifes 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
