Cleo Laine - Lines to Ralph Hodgson, Esq.
(Everyone wants to know him) --
With his musical sound
And his Baskerville hound
Which, just at a word from his master
Will follow you faster and faster
And tear you limb from limb
How delightful to meet Mr. Hodgson!
Who is worshiped by all waitresses
(They regard him as something apart)
While on his palate fine he presses
The juice of the gooseberry tart
How delightful to meet Mr. Hodgson!
(Everyone wants to know him )
He has 999 canaries
And round his head finches and fairies
In jubilant rapture skim
How delightful to meet Mr. Hodgson!
(Everyone wants to meet him )
