A Japanese dance troupe celebrating Hinamatsuri discovered this dangerous waltz procedure inside an un-pulled and otherwise empty Christmas cracker in an underground bunker in Buckingham Palaces' grounds after an early Spring  garden party. 

It is a secret service adaption of a native South African weaponised waltz; used to protect one from unwanted advances for several minutes when sober. 
(Allegedly less effective if cardboard party hats are present in large numbers.)

To initiate the strike just shout the trigger  "hitch-hiker" to the band leader who will immediately start the secret count (1 and 2 and 3 and 1 2 3 and 4)and the following melee of winded dancers and limb dislocations should ensure a safe exit for the agent. 

Generally only used as a last resort by UK secret services due to the unpredictable depth of collateral damage and abnormal level of vituperative complaints from adjacent dwellings.

When you've climbed up the mountain
All you can see are rivers running away
Running away

LORETTA Pt. 1

Oh Loretta
What have you done?

Now the rain is going to wash your high-heeled clicks away
Back the way you came

Oh Loretta
What have you done?
You broke a big man
You made it look fun

Now the rain is going to wash your high-heeled clicks away
Back the way you came

Oh Loretta
What have you done?

BUTTER KNIFE HEAVEN (BOP BOP)

@Rick-4-1: Well, he played drums on this, if you can call it just that. It's something much bigger really, it's like the hairs on the back of your neck on new batteries for the first time in your life.
@phil-mcwalter: Well, just the other stuff.

Enjoy heaven.

PLAY IT LOUDER

Heaven

I think I had forgotten 
How to fall in love
I got it right first time 
When I was young and pure like heaven
But it’s never been as good
In fact it’s been as rough as wood
And it’s splintered me

I sort of forgot
How it's supposed to be hot
And when it had gone cold
And I looked at what I'd got
It was not a lot

I’ve wasted some time 
Heaven
Well most of our lives 
Heaven
It feels like a crime
Sharp as a butter knife
I’ve been spread too thin
By kith and kin

Original sin
But not so original
I should have told the Pope
That there was no hope
And what would you know 
He’d agreed with me
It’s not a great story
Not bloody or gory
You just get one shot
And I must have given mine to someone else
It should have ended my game
But I’ve passed it on
It’s a little bit lame 
Just the same
Like everything else 
Bop Bop
I’m now at a full stop
Bop Bop
It’s just a pensioner’s bus-hop away 
(Anyway)

I think I had forgotten 
How to fall in love
I think I have forgotten (How to say goodbye)
How to end it all

It’s just been a waste
Heaven
A copy and paste 
Heaven 
I haven’t been traced
Lost or misplaced
I feel debased 
And disgraced
It leaves a bitter 
Aftertaste
But I aint crying
I’ve just been sprayed with Mace…

Bop Bop

Heaven…

Butter Knife Heaven

Butter Knife Heaven (Bop Bop)

"The Turtle Project" started out as exactly that, a project, a songwriting project that was born from years of being a musician in many bands, doing countless gigs, naturally gathering experience and inspiration until, one day, I stumbled upon the fact that I could actually put those experiences and many others into words. The composing aspect grew from that into what it is today ...
My way of life .
