They travel far-far for a holiday tan
Tangier trippy-tourists tippily traverse
Going native in hawai-shirts skins so wan
Canute cannot the waves rule reverse
Upper lip stiff gin, sun down with Nero's élan
Man goes the common man - his coconut curse
Marigold memsahibs - a nostrum the gigolo plays
Minstrels in the galley oblige the blighty ways!
