Appropriately this goes to the tune of the "Eton Boating Song" (or, if you're an ex-rugby player, "The Sexual Life of the Camel). Anyway, here goes: THE OSBORNE GLOATING SONG Intro: We all love to go boating, Boating in a punt; And when we’re not out boating, You’ll find us on a hunt. From George we’ve all got a ...
