Hello my dear I'm so pleased to meet
It is seldom someone stops to greet
I'm a rogue and a rake, I'm John Haddock the Hake
It's a thousand years that I have been awake
I live down in the sea in the depths of the deep
And I graze the sea-bottom like a sheep
But when I get hungry, we'll make no mistake
Because I am a raider, I'm John Haddock the Hake
My teeth are plentiful, my mouth so big
I can sweep you up with one great swig
There is no lily-pussying on my shoal, oh no!
For I am king Haddock the Hake, just so
Don't you go soft and crying and all
Cause I am big and you are small
You think tears in water, no one can see
...except for one, John Haddock, that's me
I can sense your weakness from under the waves
And I get what I want as do all knaves
The big eats the small that’s eternal law
And I am John Haddock the Hake, hee-haw!

There is something decidedly fishy going on here .. Nicer than one might at first think ... especially with parsley & tartar sauce on the side ... made me smile too so that's an extra bonus my friend .... Neville x
Thank you Neville, every smile is worth a million to the queen poetess of crappy animal poems.
Yes, give me fish with parsley and tartar sauce anytime! But there are some characters in life you don’t want to meet without tartar sauce on the side... 🙂
