From Camillo to Camilla (c)
By
Michael Casey
from Camillo to Camilla , Michael Casey is a Queen's man
So she is up in Edinborough I hear, handing out books
is she working in the charity shop again
He may be all rock and roll, but the King never gives her enough
Return to lending library
Pages slightly dog eared , him or the books
so where was I, I was minding my own business
fixing the green shield, the stamps, if we save them
we can get a new deep fat frier for the next garden party
though the grandkids insist on licking the side of his face
to help him remember the spit and polish days
and it's their way of giving a stamp of approval
so Camilla is in the throne room, reading as she cogitates
they cannot touch you for it, Mrs Windsor
as Ken Dodd might say during his 14 hour short show
we can hear laughter, and then a Royal Flush
they are such cards down the Bingo Palace
she was only one number away from winning
a set of glass tumblers, as Politicians fallover
trying to keep it straight
what straight you may well ask
and what rhymes with ask
who knows I'm no good with prose
picking my nose and wiping on the wall
now that is my best accomplishment
Oh were was I, the Queen has come out
not of the closet, just the throne room
the Lady waiting rushes in
and throws her the clutch bag she left behind
Her easy reader is inside
It's Michael Casey the fat silver haired writer from Birmingham

she has all of him, it beats having to make conversation
when she's using her free bus pass on the tube
sometimes she just is not amused
so she pretends it a doctors appointment
when really she is reading me, Michael Casey
But seriously, why would she read a 10th rate Spike Milligan
OR 1000th rate Spike I can hear you all shout
Aha sing on cue
I don't wanna cry again, I hate them hurling abuse at me from the radio
SO anyway, If she were to read me, would you all sudden BUY the books
it's more likely Don Camillo gives me a kick up the backside
Hence from Camillo to Camilla
It's all in the vowels you know
It can affect your Throne Room time as well
AND my big brother was a Queens Man too
It's something in the way we move
Stop Messing About
HE was at Queens Oxford, and Lord Daniel Moyan
he was our neighbour long long ago
Danny might know the Queen too, in reality
as he was a Political guy, and a banker
Me I'm the Sancho Panza chasing him up the road
and throwing snowballs at him after Midnight Mass
Small world, and the small path , camillo, leads to Camilla
which sounds like a brand of Peruvian cigars
Did Leo, or Pope Paddington share one when Camilla was in Rome
I thought it was a Goth convention and she was sneaking out the back
with Sharon Osborne for a craft half of Guinness
they were both dressed in Black after all
Sharon and Camillo on a sticker sun visor on their ford capri 3.5 litre
that's the bottle of Blue nun they share too
You need a drink after a Vindaloo and a Popadom
Birmingham has the world's best curries after all
ask anybody from Old Forge and Singing Anvil
it's in the Black Country where my 1st book is set
The Butcher The Baker and The Undertaker by Michael Casey
take your time with the 1st two, but the Undertaker is a poet
so you may want to avoid him, but he'll get you in the end
so CHUCK, and Camilla maybe see you down the Post Office
on Pension Day
or maybe not
Calling me a Queens Man, is it the way I walk
or am I just too twerking good for the likes of you
mi honours, never sentence me, my balls are bouncing
in a Court of their Own
ears muffs made from pants to protect from Tinnitus
