He found an unexploded bomb
Then quickly fetched a hammer
He’d have the end off this thing quick
Much faster than a spanner.
He’d seen them dropping out of planes
He’d seen the damage done
He’d like to have a look inside
He thought it might be fun.
One more whack and he would soon
Have the damn thing out
From the distance he could hear
His mother, give a shout.
“Your dinners on the table
And it’s nearly half past three”
One thing’s for sure
With that last clout
He won’t be home for tea.

Oh, dear. Actually it made me think of a sitcom here from the eighties. It was called Sledge Hammer and the guy was an over-the-top parody of every tough guy, Dirty Harry type of cop you can think of. His tagline was, “Trust me. I know what I’m doing.” When they were going to cancel the show, the last episode showed Sledge and his partner and their boss finding a nuclear bomb with 42 seconds left on it. “Hammer! You can’t defuse that bomb!” “Trust me! I know what I’m doing!” Ka-boom. https://youtu.be/XGoU7urNTbI

Just watched the clip… I think my favourite spoof import from the USA was Police Squad. Very funny.

Hee hee. Everybody’s reaction to an unexploded bomb: ‘Where’s me hammer?’ Gold, Mr Underfelt, as usual.
