Maharaja Miku & his Mini’s Flat Battery
I say, Pray do you know The Pink Flamingo needs to know Where and how I get to our next show This morning alas and it is sad My Mini said ‘No!’ It just wasn’t going to go I felt mad, ‘cos this was all rather bad With trepidation I asked why Wondering if twas time to say bye ‘I ain’t no ordinary barge I do need a proper charge My list of ailments is rather large’ I called upon Jon, wise and shy He pawed the bonnet with foxlike grace Sniffed the tyre, then left no trace Satinder roared, “It’s sabotage!” A plot most foul, a battery mirage The Mini slumped, no will to try I rummaged through my glovebox stash Old receipts and a melted mint A map to gigs long since extinct A feather from the Flamingo’s plume A note that read “Charge me soon!” But fate had played its final bash And left me stranded in a flash So I summoned Maharaja Rich With cosmic shoes and bubble car He said, “Fear not, we’ll raise the bar!” He danced a jig, then sang a spell The Mini blinked, but was all well?...
