Great steaming lump of sausage meat
\nIt’s you we’ve all come here to eat;
\nYour oats and pepper, something sweet\u2014
\n What is that smell?
\nPerhaps a hint of runner’s feet?
\n I cannot tell.<\/p>\n
The neeps and tatties on the plate
\nAre our two veg, it is their fate.
\nBut you’re the course for which we wait\u2014
\n We’re all agog
\nAs on a nervous lover’s date
\n With lots of grog!<\/p>\n
Mister MacSween has done his best;
\nWe went to Waitrose for the rest:
\nNo need for a genetic test
\n Of any course:
\nNo GMO or turkey breast
\n Or Tesco horse.<\/p>\n
Forget your sorrows and your woe
\nAnd let the amber liquids flow:
\nThere really is no need to know
\n What the bag is.
\nI’ll end it now, my tell and show:
\n Eat the haggis!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
