There's Jelly At the Beach

I’m gobs smacked; I thought I saw it all,
I said “Rub your eyes Sidney Hall.”
There’s jelly at the Beach,
There was lemon, orange, banana yellow, and my favourite peach.

So much jelly all in one place, 
I wonder how they could fit it in such a small space.
One thing I must say and I'm glad
To you when you hear it might sound bad

Here we go:  I’m really concerned 
For the freedom of these colourful bikinis is justifiable earned?
With oozing jelly bellies hanging over the sides
Some one please dab my watering eyes

Oh the chaffing and squeaking from their thongs
Sound like a bunch of strangled birds singing their last songs
One thing I must say for certain 
One bikini could make a duvet and a pair of curtains

Jelly bellies, hips and thighs 
This beats an optician’s test of the eyes
And when they bend over it happens so soon
A total eclipse of the sun and the moon

When they lay on the beach, the direction to run I don't know
For it's like a mudslide or a lava flow 
Well to some men this might be a terrible sight
To others the jelly at the beach is a beautiful sight

*Ok it's not quite jellyfish but I must admit*
*but there is loads of Jelly not a little bit*
