Keeping Two Chevrons Apart

Well I’m not really worried about this
But can some one please answer me this
Apart from on commentary
Where else on earth
Can you hear the word ‘aplomb’ being used?

I’m filling up at Rothersthorpe North
Good Girl has broken my heart
She took off with a youth
From Rothersthorpe South
Now she’s keeping two chevrons apart

Keeping two chevrons apart
Yes she’s keeping two chevrons apart
They say “Plenty more fish”
I say “Amoco Cadiz”
She’s keeping two chevrons apart

Sunday markets?
You’ll find Abergele’s the best
In her medium-sized launch
Tethered off Biarritz
She’s keeping two chevrons apart
In her medium-sized launch
Tethered off Biarritz
She’s keeping two chevrons
Keeping two chevrons
Keeping two chevrons apart
