Good work.

Someone did a song on it some time back with accurate precision.

 

Oh-ho-ho-ho

Everybody was kung <deleted> fighting

There were funky China men from funky Chinatown
They were chopping them up, they were chopping them down
It's an ancient Chinese art and everybody knew their part.

What a silly sport. Rule: You're to fight but not hit each other too hard.
