Gobalino, Gobalino what can I say The Marmite lovers will rule this day 100 years past and still it is here What makes you think that you’ll change that My Dear?
Adding Marmite to your spag bol was not being mean It’s been my secret ingredient ever since I was a teen You’ve wolfed it down all these years past My secret is out and you know it at last
You know you love me, you always will Though I love my Marmite - I love you too still Marmite will live when we’re dead and dust Why waste you’re time fighting it - though do if you must
Too many Ciaoers have joined my cause here The Marmiters have won - no don’t shed a tear We can scoff tons and not seem so greedy For Marmite passion is no longer seedy
For we know the secret of yeast extract joy Vitamins and goodness is their low-cal ploy How can you stand against a product so good Such a beneficial, delicious and tasty type food
My smearing your face was years ago now And ‘tis not very nice to call your sister a cow I wont fight you young Mellie - I’ve already won Marmite has triumphed my work here is done ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Not Mellie? Wonder what an earth I’m talking about? My darling sister took mighty offence at an innocent op of mine about Marmite (I love it, she hates it) And in that review she realised that all these years I have been flavouring her meals with Marmite. In a flush of red hot rage she then penned a battle cry retaliatory op and this is my reply to her.
Oh dear, see what happens when I turn my back for a minute! I miss out on all the blinkin excitement as it happens. I shall have to read the other two ops now.
