Sebastian dressed like a toff
Other people he would scoff
He was a snob, I suppose
People named him
Toffee nose...

Of childhood, a little story,
Mimi, fluffy dog, toy glory,
She lost an eye, tail wagged off,
Rubbed fur, not so toff,
But so well loved, I say,
Wish I still had her today!...

A party of toffs all so snotty

was crashed by a yokel so naughty.

After passing much gas,

this guy with no class

took a dump left unflushed in the potty.


(for those who may not know: Toff is a person of high-class society

 a Yokel is an uneducated, unsophisticated person from the countryside.)...

They are people just so full
thinking they are the top
nobody's like them at all
forgetting that one day they'll drop

These people think nothing of the poor
give no time to the worse off
as they reckon they deserve
everything they have to be a toff

Humility they sadly lack
equality is not part of them
they have only one goal
to be creme de la creme

But the arrogant will fall
one day this wrong attitude
will be returned on it's head
when it ends in a box of wood...

Mentally  endowed enough,
to take the piffle from your puff,
and ram it home, sweet butter cup,
side effects are frightening,

miscarriage of justice, can put you off
and pride slips cos you're the Toff
that damaged goods, while cancer scoffs.
Not so enlightening. 

thick as your arm is mental charm,
which may be so inviting,
don't even want to cause alarm.
yet love is still exciting

4-jul-11   Don Johnson
