A Bathroom Pantoum

Antonio a tenor's ring, in the bathroom he would sing Gilbert and Sullivan was his thing, oft he'd sound this manly zing, in the bathroom he would: sing! all his music he would bring, oft he'd sound; this manly zing! the kitchen staff could hear him sing, all his; music he would bring. Gilbert and Sullivan was his thing? the kitchen staff could. Hear him sing! Antonio: a tenor's ring.

Reminds me of my late brother in the bathroom, singing his modified version of an Aria from La Traviata, I think- " Valenciaaaaaa! Stick your head between your legs and whistle up your Barcelonaaaa! Fa la lala la laaaaaaaa!" Great write, Peter. Regards, Viv
