So Didn'T Pedro Have a Brother

In continuation to the limerick "PEDRO THE PEDDLER" . . . : ) PEDRO’S BROTHER DIEGO . . . So . . . Didn’t Pedro have a brother he is called Diego He is just back from his holidays from Tobago Caught at customs with too much contraband Thirty bottles of rum and a pocket full of sand Diego paid his fines and was wavered through But once on the plane he had a drink or a two It was not long that he was arrested for affray Now he’s doing 2 months in prison Harpurhey Pedro wrote to Diego - said I will see you soon Both of us should be out come the end of June Seems they both had a cousin - his name Erico Said he would transfer them both some dough The dosh arrived super quick - both were flush Living the life of Riley both of them feeling Kush Both set up in business selling baccy to the lags At an extortionate price of a tenner for - 3 fags But time was spent gambling - both lost a mint All that money - now both ended up being skint Both left the prison and then met up in the pub Spent all their travel fares on some decent grub Now Pedro and his brother on Tuesdays a come Selling knocked off bottles of old Jamaican Rum Both look nothing short of a pair of - castaways Nowt will stop the brothers from their illicit ways Indiana Shaw . . . : )
