    He developed gangrene due to poor circulation and had both legs amputated.

    Arthur Askey and Dougie-Wougie Bader went down to the Animal Farm
    Dougie bored a boar with his stories from the war
    And explained about the boil on his palm
    Napoleon very pink offered both of them a drink
    And a drink and a drink and a drink
    Come the hour of four they were legless to be sure
    And not one of them had even had a wink of sleep
    And everybody sang as loud as they could:
    “Two legs bad but four legs good”
    This made the boys feel pretty oppressed

    Came the new realm, it was A.A. at the helm
    While Dougers played ‘Luftwaffe’ on the roofs
    After amputating limbs all the others wrote new hymns
    And a signpost read ‘Second-hand hooves’
    Years passed by, double grazing in the sty
    It was good, but it was total apathy
    Everybody arsed around and that ‘Beasts of England’ sound
    Had been ruined by a busy busy bee

    And chants were heard from the East to the West
    “Four legs good but no legs best”
    Invalidity reigned supreme

    And chants were heard from the East to the West
    “Four legs good but no legs best”
    One-time visitors were now the regime
