The acid tongue with gourmet's expertise
Through snobbish growing round her hemline zone
Her native chauffeur waited in the breeze
And empty cages show life's bird has flown
Oh how oh how he hates such pilferings
Filching the lolly country thrift helped save
The learning linguist cameramaniac sings
That every verbal shock aims to deprave
Staunch pilgrims longest journeys can't depress
One tongue will do to keep the verse agog
Watching manure and compost coalesce
No need to cart such treasures from the fog
Ventriloquists be blowed you strike me dumb
yet from the City's pie pulled not one plum
