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
