There are all shades of English:
Scottish English,
Irish English,
Welsh English,
All with English in common.
But whether some was gotten
At an auction
Or boughten for a fraction
Is anybody’s guess.
I went out with a guy from Reading.
At the end of the date
Was my face red –
I had pardoned most everything he said.
He could have spoken Finnish,
It may have been Yiddish or Flemish
Or something in between,
But it certainly wasn’t English
As spoken by the queen.
