Brian’s Picnic
We’ve …

Beef rolls, Ham;

bacon, beans or spam?

We’ve…
egg and cress and sausages,
good old lettuce leaf;
come on, Brian, take some now-
there’s turkey, tuna, beef…
I WANT A DOUGHNUT!
We’ve…
treacle tart and apple tart,
biscuits, blackberries, cake-
take which one you feel like,
Brian, come along now, take!
I WANT A DOUGHNUT!
There’s…
jelly next or trifle,
everything must go!
Quickly, Brian, pass your plate-
is it yes or no?
I WANT A DOUGHNUT!
We’ve…
sponge cake, fruit cake,
eat it any way!
Peanut butter, best rump steak…
what is that you say?
I WANT A DOUGHNUT!
