Thank you, Lance. Now here's my Occasional.


Occasional

State occasions are truly enticing
To ordinary birds and their blokes.
We rejoice at a birth or a splicing,
We are sad when a VIP croaks.

We worship the sight and the sound
Of the nobs in their coaches and carriages
Who are most of the time to be found
At Fortnum & Mason or Claridges.

At the end of the day we 'll be pissed,
Which will make the occasion Right Royal,
And a Union Jack in each fist
Just shows we are frightfully loyal.

And frightfully loyal we are,
We were and we ever shall be.
The monarchy wins the cigar
'Cos a monarch is our cup of tea.
