Verse 1	Nearly three thousand years ago, 
	The Ancient Greeks said, “Hey!
	We want to honour our god Zeus – 
	We think we’ve found a way!”
	The first Olympic Games 
	Brought athletes in from near and far.
	The place where they met up, of course, 
		Was called Olympia! 
Spoken	All very grand, but……..

Chorus	Everyone competed naked,
	In the buff, without a stitch!
	They were starkers on the starting line,
	And nudey on the pitch! 
	But baring all in public
	Didn’t come without a hitch,
	‘Cause sand and dust get everywhere,
	And boy, that’s bound to itch!
	
Verse 2	First they held just a sprinting race 
	But that was over, fast!
	Then more events were added 
	As the years went quickly past.
	Like wrestling, boxing, long jump, 
	Javelin and discus throw.
	And racing chariots, for those 
	Who dared to have a go!
Spoken	Quite impressive, but……..

Chorus	Everyone competed naked…..

Verse 3	While the games were in flow 
	A special truce was put in place,
	So city-states who were at war 
	Could have some breathing space!
	And laurel wreaths, like medals, 
	Were awarded to the best….
	Much easier to wear them 
	On your head than on your chest!
Spoken	The reason being……..

Chorus	Everyone competed naked…..
