Hi ,
the opening line should be " vernon'll meet me when the BOAC lands " . BOAC was the airline company which merged with BEA in the 70s to form British Airways. |

Having attended public school , I am surprisingly attached to the first line of the song , a brilliant yet subtle dig at the public school system.....most people might come to the conclusion that " sup your beer and collect your fags " simply means to drink up and take your cigarettes , but in fact, is a reference to the public school " fagging " tradition , whereby all boys go through one year of " fagging " which basicaly involves being the personal servant/dogsbody of an older pupil ( and before we get any giggling from retarded individuals , it does not involve any kind of sexual behaviour ). |
