The Queens Garden Party ( Granny Slugshaw)
The Queen’s garden party (Granny Slugshaw)
It was the garden party, at Buckingham Palace
The one the Queen doesn’t enjoy
Where she meets and greets the common folk
To mix with the hoi palloi
And Granny slugshaw had wangled an invite
For the prison reform work she’d done
Cos she’d taken a prisoner into her home
Albeit…. her very own son
So she togged hersen out for’t occasion
Wi’ new shoes, and a smart dress
And an ‘andbag she’d nicked from Marks and Sparks
She wanted to dress to impress
She’d bought a fascinator
Which is only a hat… when all’s said
Except for it doesn’t quite fit right
So needs to be stuck to your head
She was all excited, at meeting the queen
Like a deb… presented at court
She put her left foot in front of her right
Then curtsied just like she’d been taught
And therein laid the problem
She shouldn’t have eaten them beans
It caused a massive kerfuffle…. When
She farted in front of the queen
It caused a massive kerfuffle
Can you imagine the scene
Granny... in her Sunday best
Had farted in front of the Queen
So she slunk off, crestfallen and riddled wi’ shame
The butt of everyone’s joke
And she scarpered into the masses
To be with the everyday folk
Then Charles and his missis came out of the palace
To do their meet and greet
To mingle with the masses
And give the plebs a treat
Then Granny got to meet Camilla
And that caused a proper to-do
Cos that’s when she surpassed hersen
…. She farted and followed through
