In Praise of Marmite
A secret passion of half the UK
Who have to taste it every day
Who cares what it is? Yeast extract!
I don’t really want to be too exact,
But I tell you this without hesitation
It’s a totally yumpcious taste sensation.
Spread on buttered toast OMG!
A bagel satisfy’s the snack eating squad.
Not a healthy looking tongue tickling treat
Well bred or the ordinary man in the street
Slap it on a huge split baked spud
Slip spoonfuls on to help your taste buds bud
The love it or hate thing seems to be true
But on a cheese sandwich nothing else will do
Contains B vitamins, it says on the jar
Don’t pretend it has goodness, that’s going too far
Just love it for love’s sake as we munch this
stuff,
As we lick our sticky black mouths it makes us feel
tough
No pretences, no nonsense it’s a wake up call
And a Marmite Sandwich
is the best of all.
Praise be to Marmite
Amen
