Julian Lennon - The Escapade
Mike Batt
Narration: There Was One Who Was Famed For The Number Of Things
He Forgot When He Entered The Ship:
His Umbrella, His Watch, All His Jewels And Rings,
And The Clothes He Had Bought For The Trip.
He Had Forty-tow Boxes All Carefully Packed,
With His Name Painted Clearly On Each;
But Since He Omitted To Mention The Fact,
They Were All Left Behind On The Beach.
He Came As A Baker; But Owned, When Too Late-
And It Drove The Poor Bellman Half Mad-
He Could Only Bake Bridecake -for Which, I May State,
No Materials Were To Be Had.
I Came As The Baker On This Escapade,
I Knead The Dough, But I Cant Look After The Bread,
The Banker Does It Instead,
And Although I Never Feel Afraid,
Somehow I Know
It Could Be The Single Worst Mistake Ive Ever Made,
To Come As The Baker On This Escapade.
