Boom Bang a Bang

[In years gone by the UK would often do well in The Eurovision Song Contest. Then, with many nations simply voting for their neighbours, or showing disdain for a Britain that opted to stand on its own two feet, we frequently receive zero or few votes… It sure ain’t about the songs.] BOOM, BANG a bang, an old Lulu song From song contest days when we couldn’t go wrong Today though, we might as well make gongs go BONG Or simply not bother and go play PING pong We wake up to breakfast ‘SNAP, CRACKLE and POP!’ To find out our entry went PLOP, plop, plop Next year some scruffy old mutts might help If they take to the stage with a HOWL, WOOF and YELP 10 November 2021 For Onomatopoeia contest Sponsor: Emile Pinet

Don't know why we bother, think I read somewhere that ABBA might be composing our next entry, not holding my breath though. Tom
