ODE TO DUNKERQUE / KING OF MAJORS

 

With golf clubs to the ready

They landed at Dunkerque

Another Hoorah Major –

another day off work

 

Despite the parties filing

The dates they couldn’t play

Sammy double-booked

And nearly missed the day

 

Then to compound his folly

Buffoonishness and pique

He realised the England game

Was later in the week

 

And so ‘twas down to business

Big points were up for grabs

Who would have the yips today

Or suffer sweaty dabs?

 

When the pressure’s really on?

Who’s man enough to hack it?

Who will ride the major tide

And don the crimson jacket?

 

Cometh the hour, cometh the man

Who’s taking all your wagers?

Who did scoop the double poop

It’s him – the King of Majors!
