Sebastian Crier: The Habitual Liar

This being the tale of a man named Crier,

Who has the High Reputation of a Habitual Liar.

The things that he\'s claimed to have done in the past:

Would leave you quite Flummoxed; and a little aghast.

He\'s descended he swears from \'Good Queen Bess\':

But the Virginal Queen \'Repelled Boarders\' at best.

And to have Sailed around the World;

Twice up to date:

But was \'Blowing his lunch\' on the town\'s boating lake.

Once Dated an Actress from Hollywood he said:

But it\'s \'Am Dram\' Betty that\'s sharing his bed.

A Contender he Brags in the Pugilist game:

But was \'Felled\' by a Drunk,

So it adds to his shame.

And the London Marathon he moved in quick time:

But an Ambulance is fast when a life\'s on the line.

Another Fib, and occasional boast,

How he once fought a Shark on the Florida Coast.

But amusingly enough by all reports:

It was a Surfboard Fin;

And he Fouled his Shorts.

So this is Sebastian, Machiavellian to a fault;

Take whatever he says with a Shovel of Salt.

So; all things considered you\'ll find unsurprising;

He has a safe regular job -

In Advertising.
