My, oh, my. I came across many a tie
In the charity shop.
My eyes popped out like organ stops -
Ties, all the colours one could find
And a certain gent came into mind.
Wearing one of those, I'd feel a right Richard, to put it politely.
Yes, I am referring, of course, to Richard Whiteley.
I paused in thought ...
A, E, the tie I bought ... IOU 45p.
"Is this a Richard Whiteley job lot, me dear?"
"Oh, no. We get a constant supply here -
In ties these days men don't appear."
My tie, my wit, needs a conundrum, I suppose
So here, dear reader, is one of those:
CANTIFAST?
