JUST A TANTALISING HINT OF THE EXOTIC

 

Just a tantalising hint of the exotic

Beneath the hem of your skirt

I’m interested in whatever it is

It’s quite driving me berserk

 

Can you give me the slightest hint?

Or be upfront I really don’t mind

I won’t be embarrassed at all

I love underwear of any kind

 

The garment into which you slipped

If it’s an under slip, something of that kind

If you were to slip yourself out of it

If you felt so inclined, I wouldn’t mind

PINEAPPLE DUFFER

 

When my Dad was just a boy

Pineapple slices came in a tin

And had he put it on his dinner

Bedlam would have taken him

TAKEAWAYS

When my Dad was just a boy

They didn’t have takeaways

Except in maths which were

Called subtraction in olden days

PIZZA FAME

 

When my Dad was just a boy

He had never heard of pizza

But he thought it was famed

For having a leaning tower

SALT AND SHAKE

When I was a kid all crisps were plain

But we didn’t care about that a jot

After all we still had the choice

Of whether to put the salt on or not

WE USED TO EAT A LOT OF RICE

 We used to eat a lot of rice

When I was a boy, no kidding

But never for our dinner, we had it

With condensed milk for pudding
