At five precisely out went La Marquise
That horders of crooks felt they'd more right to own
The showman gargles fire and sword with ease
While sharks to let's say potted shrimps are prone
How it suprised us pale grey underlings
Filching the lolly country thrift helped save
The learning linguist cameramaniac sings
The nicest kids for strickiest toffees crave
The wolf devours both sheep and shepherdess
With gravity at gravity's great cog
The colonel's still escutcheoned in undress
Their sculptors did our best our hulks the clog
Do bank clerks rule their abacus by thumb
yet from the City's pie pulled not one plum
