They Were Only Playing Leapfrog From Oh! What A Lovely War

One staff officer jumped right over another staff officer’s back,
And another staff officer jumped right over that other staff officers’ back
A third staff officer jumped right over the two staff officers’ backs,
And a fourth staff officer jumped right over all the other staff officers’ backs.

They were only playing leap-frog,
They were only playing leap-frog,
They were only playing leap-frog,
When one staff officer jumped right over
The other staff officer’s back.
