"Soggy Knees-Up"

Don't want to piss on your parade
But it's going to pour with rain
Must be time for carnival
In Southwark Park again.
But dampened spirits won't put off
This white working class rave
For top of the bill in Bermondsey
Are good old Chas & Dave.
When you're stood in the mud
Getting soaking wet
You'll wish you followed their advice
As you listen to their set.
Not feeling quite so keen
And what might have been
You should have 'Gone dahn ter Margate'
Instead of S.E. sixteen.

Dulwich Poet 28th June 2014

(It's the Bermondsey Carnival this afternoon, at Southwark Park. Heavy rain showers are forecast, with headliners Chas & Dave on stage at half past six...)
