OUR Q.M. STORE
I’ve learned lots of things in this Army of ours Since Hitler first started the war; But as much as I’ve yearned, > I’ve never yet learned How to get what I want from the 'store. Now just why it is I’ve never found out They’re simply a difficult lot; It’s no use surmising, ’tis really surprising To hear what they just haven’t got.
If you’ve a jacket or hat that just doesn’t fit You’re in for a nasty surprise, They’d love to arrange it, but they simply can’t change it, ’Cause they haven’t got one in your .size. They’re full of excuses and will probably say As soon as you get to the door, What ever you want we just haven’t got And we’re not going to get any more. Sure ’twas always the same in this Army of ours Since ever they started the war; It’s no use applying, ’tis a waste of time trying To draw from an Army Q. Store. J.P., Ngaruawahia.
