<HTML>Anyone seen this play and film? This is the song the Brit soldiers sing the Germans just before they play football...... The Next Version
It was Christmas day in the SpecOps
The happiest day of the year
Men's heart were full of gladness, and their bellies full of beer
When in strode Thursday Next
Her face as bold as brass
"Singing "We don't want Goliath's puddings..
You can shove them up your.....
Chorus
"Tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy
Oh tidings of comfort and joy!"
It was Christmas Day at the harem
The eunuchs were standing round
And hundreds of beautiful women
Were stretched out on the ground
When in strode the bold bad ChronoGaurd
And gazed on those marble halls
Singing "What do you want for Christmas boys?"
And the eunuchs answered.......
Chorus
"Tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy
Oh tidings of comfort and joy!"</HTML>

<HTML>Forgot to say that I've only ever see a couple of stills from the film, so have no real idea what's going on here.

<HTML>It's the bit in the trenches where the German soldiers have just thrown a christmas pud and some holly over to the Brits and have also just sung "Silent Night". That song is the Brits response. Just before they all get together and play football. Based on a true event of WWI.
