Mr Grant

They all mocked Mr Grant

for his very sudden rant,

They said he should not be,

Sat in the seat, talking, for all to see.

Undoubtedly, somebody brought up the prostitute,

and again, he tried to settle the old dispute.

I thought ‘Mr Grant you do look old,

very different to the films sold,

time seems to have caught up on you,

and now no one remembers your debut.’

Yes, they did not like Mr Grant

with his shiny hair transplant,

I just felt a little sorry for him,

gaunt, wrinkled and slim.

Promptly, Mr Grant left the inquest,

at least, it can be said, he was well-dressed.
