Ice Cream

All I want is an ice cream,

White choc to supplement sunbeams.


Maybe a double caramel Magnum,

Might stop me sucking a chocolate handgun.


Get me a sticky orange flavoured Solero,

Licking the juice as I ride life's hectic rodeo.


Might get a multi pack double toffee meal,

Stopping me thinking bout heavens plea deal. 


Or get me a multi pack of 3 cornettos,

Lickin away lifes drama n sorrows.


Or try a new pink champagne lemonade, 

Savour the sweet cherry ice as pain fades.


Lets make my own bag of frozen iced popsicle, 

As I write my latest dissident article. 


But I've got no money for an ice cream,

So my brains kept in this crazy heat daydream.
