Spike’s poetry, I’m rather fond of On the Ning Nang Nong

King's Crustacean

English Teeth, English Teeth!

Shining in the sun

A part of British heritage

Aye, each and every one.

English Teeth, Happy Teeth!

Always having fun

Clamping down on bits of fish

And sausages half done.

English Teeth! HEROES' Teeth!

Hear them click! and clack!

Let's sing a song of praise to them -

Three Cheers for the Brown Grey and Black.

Sitting down to lunch

Gobble gobble glup glup

Munch munch munch

Twas brillig, and the slithy toves

Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;

All mimsy were the borogoves,

And the mome raths outgrabe.

Spike Milligan was such a favourite of mine as a kid!

Tiger, tiger, burning bright.

Look out! You'll set the jungle alight!

There are holes in the sky

Where the rain gets in

But there ever so small

That's why the rain is thin.

So fair is she!

So fair her face

So fair her pulsing figure

Not so fair

The maniacal stare

Of a husband who's much bigger.

As well as being very funny he had the true poets eye for a brilliant image or metaphor.

Big bird, little bird

I know you did a poo...

Is it 'cos you don't like my car,

or was it the car shampoo?

Diagonally Parked in a Parallel Universe

When I was a kid my parents bought me Spike Milligan's Silly Verse For Kids book. It's probably still at their house. I can still remember a couple of poems from it:

Today I saw a little worm

Wriggling in his belly.

Perhaps he'd like to come inside

And see what's on the telly.

"I've never felt finer"

Said the king of China

Sitting down to dine.

Then he dropped down dead

He died, he did.

And it's only half past nine.

One of my favourite books and partly to blame for my slightly warped sense of humour.

She stood on the bridge at midnight

Her lips were all a quiver.

She gave a cough, her wig fell off

And floated down the river.

Why have I got that voice of Dave Allen reciting that one in my head?

The boy stood on the burning deck,

Playing with red hot scollops,

He put one down each trouser leg,

And burnt both his ankles...

Completely missed his bollocks!!

Dr Odell fell down a well and broke his collar bone,

It goes to show doctors should tend to the sick and leave the well alone.

Secret hideaway in the pennines

I must go down to the sea again

To the lonely sea and the sky

I left my vest and socks there

I wonder if they are dry

Secret hideaway in the pennines

The herring is a lucky fish

From all disease inured.

Should he be ill when caught at sea;

Immediately - he's cured
