True British scrumptiousness
Between two pieces of bread is pure lusciousness
Whether brown or white
Eaten in the day or at night
As a snack or main meal
This British icon is the real deal
An incredible cheese pull
Other fillings to make it full
Onions tuna or crispy bacon
Will leave your taste buds shaken
Melted butter dripping with delight
Mouth salivating to take a big bite
The humble cheese toastie
A delicious specimen that’s uncostly
Truly deserves to be a national star
Rich or poor we can all devoir
How much antitoxin would it take
To shake the devil out of a soul;
To clean sin out of the heart
And make it completely whole?
All the antitoxin in the world
Couldn't make it depart;
Only the fear of Christ and salvation
Must penetrate the heart.
Such an uncostly remedy
You can take as much as you need;
Jesus gave Himself readily
One just needs to take heed.
The prescription has been written
And has already been filled;
The Great Physician is waiting
For the soul to be healed.
