A Dinner's Reprise

trifle made with custard
garden gloves and mustard

dinner listen answer me
do you want a pie and cup of tea

bake the shed ‘til ten past three
then eat it with a stormy sea

dinner can you hear me
don't cry go home early

trifle made with custard
garden gloves and mustard

Can't beat custard, perhaps not with mustard though, glad to make you smile IE
