And I'm now a very happy man,

having escaped

from an extremely overcrowded closet.

Here, catering strictly for the tastes

of the older gentleman,

here is the lounge where clients relax

with a bridge roll and a gin and tonic

before going with

the lady of their choice...

thus undermining the moral fabric

of the nation.

But let me take you

to where I know you're longing to go.

Upstairs! To reveal the exotic underbelly

of our beloved country.

Follow in the footsteps

of fathers and grandfathers,

fornicators all.

If, in your innocence,

there is anything you do not understand,

if there's anything you wish to see,

do not hesitate to ask.

For in this house,

we have nothing to hide.

Be upstanding in court.

Bless this house

O Lord, we pray

Make it safe by night and day

Bless these walls

So firm and stout

Keeping want and trouble out

Bless the roof and chimneys tall

Let thy peace lie over all

Bless this door that it may prove

Ever open to joy and love
