Major-General's Song by Gilbert And Sullivan

...
I am the very model of a modern Major-General
I've information vegetable, animal, and mineral
I know the kings of England
And I quote the (1)____________ historical
From (2)________________ to Waterloo, in order categorical
I'm very (3)________ acquainted, too, with matters mathematical
I understand equations, both the simple and quadratical
About (4)________________ theorem I'm teeming with a lot o' news
(Hmm, lot of news.... Got it!)
With many cheerful facts
About the square of the hypotenuse
...
I'm very good at integral and differential calculus
I know the scientific (5)__________ of beings animalculous
In short, in (6)______________ vegetable, animal, and mineral
I am the very (7)__________ of a modern Major-General
...
I know our mythic history
King Arthur's and Sir Caradoc's
I (8)____________ hard acrostics, I've a pretty (9)__________ for paradox
I quote in (10)________________ all the (11)____________ of Heliogabalus
In conics I can floor peculiarities parabolous
I can tell undoubted
Raphaels (12)________ Gerard Dows and Zoffanies
I (13)________ the croaking chorus
From The Frogs of Aristophanes
Then I can hum a fugue
Of which I've heard the music's din afore
(Ooh, din afore, din afore... Got it!)
And whistle all the airs
From that (14)________________ nonsense Pinafore
...
Then I can write a washing (15)________ in Babylonic cuneiform
And tell you every detail of Caractacus's uniform
In short, in (16)______________ vegetable, animal, and mineral
I am the very (17)__________ of a modern Major-General
...
In fact
When I know what is meant by "mamelon" and "ravelin"
When I can tell at sight a (18)____________ rifle from a javelin
When such affairs as sorties
And surprises I'm (19)________ wary at
And when I (20)________ precisely
What is meant by "commissariat"
When I have learnt
What progress has been made in modern gunnery
When I know more of tactics than a novice in a nunnery
In short, when I've a smattering of elemental strategy
(Oh, that's a hard one, strategy... Got it!)
You'll say a better Major-General has (21)__________ sat a-gee
...
For my military knowledge
Though I'm plucky and adventury
Has only been brought down
To the beginning of the century
But still, in matters vegetable, animal, and mineral
I am the (22)________ model of a (23)____________ Major-General
...
(One more time?!)
...
In fact
When I know (24)________ is meant by "mamelon" and "ravelin"
When I can tell at sight a Mauser rifle from a javelin
When such affairs as sorties
And surprises I'm (25)________ wary at
And when I know precisely
What is meant by "commissariat"
When I have learnt
What progress has been made in modern gunnery
When I know more of tactics than a (26)____________ in a nunnery
In short, when I've a smattering of elemental strategy
You'll say a better Major-General has never rode a horse!
...
For my military knowledge
Though I'm (27)____________ and adventury
Has only (28)________ brought down
To the beginning of the century
But still, in matters vegetable, animal, and mineral
I am the very model of a modern Major-General!
