We'll Take Our Crumpets Now


I’d like to visit Sicily
Italy, Eritrea and France
Drink tea with a Dane
On the Seine, dressed for the Opera, and dance
We’d kiss till our eyes close
And both propose, we kiss till we reach Lucerne
We’ll have chai in Bombay
Sing “Ciao” to Cathay, make love upon lilies and fern
Perhaps I’ll want sake
In Nagasaki, and she’ll ask for espresso
We might board a plane, I
& the Dane, Singing Beatles songs Because See Said (She Said) So…
Painting our portraits in nude
On the blue Danube, not dressing till they say we’re done
Then off to Seville - mores the pity
It’s not Mexico City, and perhaps get it all in by one
But we’ll take our crumpets now...
     ...and tea, please
