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. |

"There are holes in the sky
Where the rain gets in
But there ever so small
That's why the rain is thin.
Spike Milligan"
As well as being very funny he had the true poets eye for a brilliant image or metaphor. |

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!! "

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