Herewith for your delectation and delight two of Les Barkers little offerings.
CUSTARD CREAMS (Les Barker, music by Tchaikovsky)
Those midnight snacks bring what you always dread; Crumbs in your blanket and your feather bed; Crumbs without number Keep you from slumber; Yield up the night time to old custard creams. Yield up the night time to old custard creams.
The late night sandwhich and the giger nut Stick in your shoulder;lie underfoot, Huntley and Palmer There is no armour Yield up the darkness to old custard creams Yield up the darkness to old custard creams
Barm cakes and biscuits;whole loaves of bread Mate on your mattress;breed in your bed One million croutons All on one futon And down your duvet there's old custard creams And down your duvet there's old custard creams
I think I know now why my mother said That gentlemen dont take tarts to bed And when you're restive Blame the digestive You'll find no comfort with old custard creams You'll find no comfort with old custard creams
Dont forget to credit Les Barker for the words and P I Tchaik for the tune
