Bag O’Sweets

Open up your bag and round

a quarter of sweets for half a pound

a drumstick lolly that’s hard to beat

lemon drops for a special treat

chocolate footballs and fizzy drops

the magic candy that fizzes and pops

cola bottles and sherbet tubes

candied shrimps and pineapple cubes

Now , don’t eat them all now,

they’re a treat, we agree

but eat them all and you wont eat

the fish and chips for your tea!
