The Torquay Regatta
It's the regatta in Torquay
The thought of it brings such glee
With yacht racing in the bay
Money for the fair saved since May
On the switchback you'll lose your bearings
Come and buy some dainty fairings
Try your luck on the coconut shy
Bid for nougat please come and try
It's the regatta in Torquay
The thought of it brings such glee
The horses on the roundabout
The strangest shows without a doubt
Penny monkeys in every hue
Pin your coat with one or two
Can you pitch a ping pong ball
A goldfish prize for one and all
Out in the bay the yachts race by
From Haldon pier you can watch them fly
Brittania is sighted up goes the cry
Beneath the blue August sky
It's the regatta in Torquay
The thought of it brings such glee
With yacht racing in the bay
Money for the fair saved since May
The thought of it brings such glee
With yacht racing in the bay
Money for the fair saved since May
On the switchback you'll lose your bearings
Come and buy some dainty fairings
Try your luck on the coconut shy
Bid for nougat please come and try
It's the regatta in Torquay
The thought of it brings such glee
The horses on the roundabout
The strangest shows without a doubt
Penny monkeys in every hue
Pin your coat with one or two
Can you pitch a ping pong ball
A goldfish prize for one and all
Out in the bay the yachts race by
From Haldon pier you can watch them fly
Brittania is sighted up goes the cry
Beneath the blue August sky
It's the regatta in Torquay
The thought of it brings such glee
With yacht racing in the bay
Money for the fair saved since May
