SPIKE MILLIGAN 1918-2002

ALL THOSE MONKEYS

Look at all those monkeys
Jumping in their cage.
Why don't they all go out to work
And earn a decent wage?

How can you say such silly things,
And you a son of mine?
Imagine monkeys travelling on
The Morden-Edgware line!

But what about the Pekinese!
They have an allocation.
"Don't travel during Peke hour"
It says on every station.

My gosh, you're right, my clever boy,
I never thought of that!
And so they left the monkey house,
While an elephant raised his hat. 

Terence Alan Patrick Seán Milligan was a popular comedian, writer, musician, poet, playwright and actor. He was the main writer and principal cast member of the famous radio programme The Goon Show.
