Europe Us And Them Poem by taxi poet

The time is coming for you and me,
To see what’s right in E.E.C,
Bananas short, long or fat,
I’m really into sorting that,
The money thing I’m into too,
Euros for me, Pound’s for you,
But what about the humble socket,
This really gets me on my rocket,
You go to Italy, Greece or Spain,
Not one plug is the same,
Two prongs, three prongs and the rest,
God only knows which is the best,
Let E.E.C look into it,
At 57 I’m no twit,
A standard plug should be decided,
And by all the choice abided,
So I don’t carry in my luggage,
Lots of plugs and excess baggage,
Why don’t they check the human race?
Now don’t blush it’s on your face,
And for us to recreate,
For a man and his mate,
Socket and plug is all we need,
It’s common in the human field,
We aren’t different from the rest,
One plug, one socket fits it best,
Why can’t Europe sort this thing?
They are all thick in my thinking,
One plug to fit is what we pine for,
And we’ll all be happy for ever more.
