    Date.

    And that's the place it happened.
    Right here at the pick n mix
    His head in the trough of gummy bears
    Left hand Maoam
    Right hand jelly snakes
    Arse in the dolly mixture
    Left foot Bonbons
    Right foot just missed the sugar almonds.
    Every 16th May we commerate
    His death with fudge and bourbon
    Even though no part of him hit the fudge
    And there was no alcohol,
    What with it being mainly for kids
    Obese kids with wobbly bellies
    No longer cute.
    Quietly despicable.
    Every day that day rolls around in May
    I eat fudge
    Drink bourbon.
    Pretend to need the bathroom
    Then sick it up.
    It's how I met the wife.

    For those who believe,
    no explanation is necessary.
    For those who do not,
    none will suffice.

    Ugly and beautiful. Nice. I mean it's so ugly that it's beautiful. I like it.

    I love this too especially the last few lines: Quietly despicable.
    Every day that day rolls around in May
    I eat fudge
    Drink bourbon.
    Pretend to need the bathroom
    Then sick it up.
    It's how I met the wife.

    Try to live in harmony with people and nature
