Whenever I visit the Apihna Arms
I can't help admiring the place's charms.
But the part I head for is—you know where;
That's right: I aim for the Comfy Chair!
Its place by the fire is the best you can find—
It's the very best seat to relax and unwind.
As I sip my Te-quay-la and gaze at the bar
I think I might try an Apihna Colada.
But then the door opens, and three chaps walk in:
It's Baggsy and Bignall, and yes that's John Flynn!
Then enters Mark Wallace, with Alfred in tow
And we all chat together till it's time to go.
If we but had teleports the others could come
So Laury could show us her "its" just for fun!
Barry from Indy and 'Drew from Detroit
And even more who could come for the night.
As the night wears on, John Gilliver bursts in
Saying "Sorry I'm late; oh, and I'll have a gin!
And as for the FAQqus Max and Min:
I don't like the way you've put me in."
This is the way that our evenings are spent:
We have a great time, though it won't pay the rent.
Then it's back to our jobs on the following day;
'Cos when we buy drinks we need somehow to pay!
