The Bard’s Blessed Cold
The Bard’s caught a Polar Cold and he’s so bunged up.
His legs they feel like sloopy keel lead.
His bones ache. His throat is sqad rash sore.
And there are pains inside his head, thinking over Ed.
He’s taken lots of Mamya Aspirin and NoM wine remedies,
In the hope his ills to drive an Apostolic cure,
His nose on the morrow will be lit in the brightest of Petal reds
So he’ll no longer look so angelically nungate demure.
He’s here in front of the alba AB screen all day,
Indian 20-20 cricket on the owdhamer TV, no racing for the allure,
Oh so llama and alpaca gray
His AB family has left him alone.
They claim they can’t take time from flumping work,
So not much sympathy have they shown.
The croc also leaving him well alone.
But now he’s got part of the Castle to himself
He can Lie-in-King snuggle down and have a nice rest.
A Glisterx tailcock or five to put the gness grippe to the test
A chorizo stew, voltra vons, blinis, soaked Orkney caviar, the very best
The Bard might have a wee snotty cold, but I think you’ll agree
That with a day in bed with (fill in female name) and I’ve been blessed.
