An Ode to the Travails of the Biscuit Lover
or
When Biscuits Go Wrong
When I went off to see Ayers Rock I thought I'd buy a Mango Biscuit
Though I'd talked to several friends who said I really shouldn't risk
it
They said "Biscuit mangos yes But Mango Biscuits, that's a con"
But I dug in my little heels and I set off to prove them wrong
I went into the biscuit shop and asked for "Mango Biscuits please"
And the shopkeeper was so happy that he fell down to his knees
He cried out "Take all of my biscuits they're the nicest thing to
eat"
But I declined very politely saying "One will be a treat"
I thought to run a biscuit shop you'd have to be a biscuit purist
And that such a man could never run a biscuit fraud on tourists
But then O! Tragedy of Tradgedies my tears came down in streams
For what I thought were Mango Biscuits
Were nothing more than Custard Creams.
