They came on vaction to the ancient nation,
to ogle the flying machines.
A hobby that started back in the old dart
but in Greece it had never been seen.
You write in your jotter, it is all quite proper,
the name and the number of planes.
Gran came along too, to admire the view,
and knock back a crossword or two.
Greece thought it quite shocking, this aeroplane spotting,
and promptly arrested the few,
Who fronted the judge, but he wouldn't budge,
the verdict was "guilty", gran too.
They're guilty of spying on aeroplanes flying,
in a public display.
Even their gran, who sat in the van and
did crossword puzzles all day.
I hope this explaining brings no more complaining,
I'm all out of rhyming, and now I'm caught whining,
I thought it amusing and not that confusing,
Now I'm not excusing so don't start abusing,
If you're a plane spotter, you may come-acropa-
lis, but that is your choice not mine.
