I am...
I am the poacher
Who cracked the whip
When the podgy pelican
Was boiling potatoes in their skin
Thinking of his suffer agonies
from thirst and cold
The pastor´s minister´s vicar´s wife
Struck a patch of bad luck
she backed the wrong horse
And of course - used to get up
every morning at seven
The pharmacological phrase-monger
Would rather have somethin´ savoury
He looks aggrieved
Replies like a shot - gives everybody
the red-carpet treatment
High and migthy pope pious
With his pettifogging mind
Plough the sands and a holy fanny
ungodly, pig-headed - he´d better
spend a penny
I am the poacher
The pinion and pilchard
Piggish and placid
With a covering of down
I´m dressed in crimson
Kept in purdah
The poky poison
I ´m the pronoun
Who cracked the whip
When the retired civil servant
Was deciding to reveal
one thing that ´s been hidden - and to dress up
like a dogs dinner
I am the poacher
The pinion and pilchard
Piggish and placid
With a covering of down
I´m dressed in crimson
Kept in purdah
The poky poison
I ´m the pronoun
Who cracked the whip
When the podgy pelican
Was boiling potatoes in their skin
Thinking of his suffer agonies
from thirst and cold
The pastor´s minister´s vicar´s wife
Struck a patch of bad luck
she backed the wrong horse
