Cakehole
I’m glad we killed Bin Laden
I think that we were clever
We took the plunge. Victoria sponge
Will henceforth last for ever
You know how cakes grow mouldy
Or how they clag or harden
But now they’ll last while years go past
And thanks to O. Bin Laden
Here in the West we value
Life’s sanctity itself
But now we’ll bake – it’s a piece of cake –
For long stay on the shelf
And thank you to Al-Qaeda
For saving so much filling
A thermal pic will keep sponge spick –
It justifies the killing
We’ve wanted to eat stay-fresh cake
Since each was just a stripling
A cupcake’s thanks that they weren’t blanks
Three cheers from Mr. Kipling
War is horrid, horrid stuff
But rotting cake’s a drama
Who’d dare to scoff when cake’s gone off
Respect to you, Obama
