To the tune of “English Country Garden”

How many secrets lurk behind the lace
In an English country village?
I’ll tell you now of some that I know
It will completely wreck the image!
Blackmail at the Vicarage
The Squire’s new squeeze is underage
The Colonel’s a crackhead, can’t keep him calm
Incest on the farm, where the kids live in the barn
In an English country village
