In grave danger of landing kerthump.

The waitress passed through;
I asked for some brew.
The bitch brought me decaffeinated.

So comments, I've none;
Let's just say that I'm done,
Though coffee might help, so I'll brew it.

Coke and Pepsi are drink orthodoxy;
But the billions they've spent
Have not yet made a dent --
They're not part of our language like "Moxie."

Off a platter of gold,

But her ankles were covered with warts.

I just prefer tonic
And take steps to get Schweppes. It's divine!"

"With every five steps,
I repeat purchase Schweppes
And remember to buy the true Tonic."

With no Schweppes for his Gin,
He did himself in --
Wouldn't you, if you were that stony?

And when I complained,
They said, "We're constrained
For a shilling, from putting a kick in `em."

To speed up the service,
If you're not too nervous,
How about if you "flash" the headwaiter?

It might just be able
To snag us a table,
If lucky perhaps free dessert.

Take the bull by the horns and choose fish.

Fed them Lobster stew.
The judge sentenced him to Utah.

Some wings of a bat
And legs of a gnat.
Hold your nose and drink double-quick!
