Speaking English


"I am the sixth 007, My raincoat?"
The boatman says tying up the marooned boat
"Whatever happened to the accomplice?"
"He cheated on us out of sheer malice."

"Where did he go? Has he got a new job?"
"He kicked the motor, calling me a yob."
"He swam ashore and disappeared from view,"
The witness sighs, "And my suspicion grew."

"Cut! That's perfect. You've got him puzzled now.!
We just have to take a shot of the bow
To show the hidden digital camera.
Could someone please go and call Dame Deborah?"

"Imbecile! I am already right here."
Dame Deborah had a way of creating fear
By speaking English with a certain flair
Sounding like she'd go where the eagles dare

Splash, Splosh, the key grip wades towards the boat
To take the camera being lowered down to float
To take a close shot as the waters flow
Of a rubber glove coming out real slow

While the mysterious hand steals the pictures
Dame Deborah prepares for Juliet Allures
A mature seductress who still has charms
To make tough secret agents crave her arms

"If only we were shooting in Hong Kong,
I'd get a rubdown by the masseuse Fong.
I've never kissed Conrad before, have you?"
"No Madam", says Claudia, "I'm with the crew."
