More in the same vein

And now an ode to those budget, no-frills airlines:


I the Lord of air and sky,

I have made my victims cry,

All who dwell in northern climes,

My planes will fly.


I who made the travellers weep,

And deprived them of their sleep,

Treated them like silly sheep:

Whom shall I try?


Here I am, Lord!

Is it I, Lord?

I received your email in the night.

I will go, Lord,

if you text me;

I will store your number in my phone.


I, the Lord of queue and strain,

I will give my victims pain,

They will weep, but never shall

they turn away!


I will break their hearts of stone,

Make them pay for every bone

That my staff will throw to them,

Whom shall I try?


Here I am, Lord!

Is it I, Lord?

I received your email in the night.

I will go, Lord,

if you text me;

I will store your number in my phone.



I the Lord of bargain shame,

I will rob the poor and lame,

I will sell a feast to them,

My bank will save.


Mouldy rolls I will provide,

Till their gorges start to rise,

I will take their life from them,

Whom shall I try?


Here I am, Lord!

Is it I, Lord?

I received your email in the night.

I will go, Lord,

if you text me;

I will store your number in my phone.

Wonderful. I am soon to take a Sleazyjet flight too. However, mouldy rolls are the province of British Airways. On the cheap airlines it is no roll at all.

Excellent. If you pay peanuts, you get nothing in return. A false economy. My best advice is to stick to Star Alliance airlines (BA and the sleazy ones are not among them).

Hello, I got tagged to reveal 7 of my favourite things and have been forcefully instructed by Jane of the Oasis to ask more bloggers to reveal theirs, so I have done my duty! :D

I liked the original version of this and when sung properly can very prayerful. Perhaps I should send up Faith of our Fathers, or Hail Queen of Heaven....I think not. Have a little respect please.
Regards maryclare :-)

Leavin on a jet plane
Heading for Pommie land again
Leavin on ajet plane
Will be back with Ashes urn again
Oh oz I hate to go
But now the Baggy green cap is
calling
Clarke and Clark must give
their all in
Praying for Victory is not a sin
Oh oz I hate to go....
