The Second Mrs Tanqueray
or
Once Bitten, Bite Back
The second Mrs Tanqueray
Indulged in hanky-panqueray;
Without so much as thanqueray,
She took from Mr Tanqueray
The money in his banqueray,
Then turned to drink and dranqueray,
While Mr T's hopes sanqueray.
His form grown lean and lanqueray
(Within his breast a canqueray),
He bought a knife and sanqueray
The blade in Mrs Tanqueray,
Which – to speak quite franqueray –
Stopped her hanky-panqueray
But hanged poor Mr Tanqueray.
Well wroteray!
