[LADIES AND GENTLEMEN]
Every duke and earl and peer is here
Everyone who should be here is here
What a smashing, positively dashing spectacle, the Ascot opening day

At the gate are all the horses waiting for the cue to fly away
What a gripping, absolutely ripping moment at the Ascot opening day

Pulses rushing
Faces flushing
Heartbeats speed up
I have never been so keyed up
Any second now, they'll begin to run
Hark, a bell is ringing, they are springing forward, look, it has begun

What a frenzied moment that was, didn't they maintain an exhausting pace?
'Twas a thrilling, absolutely chilling running of the Ascot opening race
