for PATTAYA TRADER 156 (D)

FAREWELL-SO-LOVELY-
FLOWER-OF-SIAM
Goodbye, lotus-flower,
it is time for me to go;
head back to my homeland
where the English-roses grow.
The taste is sweet-and-sour;
the feeling high-and-low.
From here in Port Pattaya
to my homeland I will go.
Goodbye, lotus-flower,
with your gold-brown glow.
I leave for the land
where the English-roses grow.

THE-LATE-EVENING-VAMP'S-
HIGH-SOCIETY-APPETITE
By Le Caprice,
in St James Place,
she waits to dine
on a 'famous face'.
The lady is a vamp
with a rich taste.
Not a drop of blood
will go to waste.
Yes by Le Caprice,
in St James place,
the vamp has drained
His-Lordship-and-His-Grace.

YES-A-DOWNTOWN-GOER'S-
LESSON-IN-WIDE-GUN-LAW
The town's beset with cowboys,
with bunches of drunk-yahoos
out to rope in drunk-women
with their invisible lassos.
When the evening is over -
in the sober light of day -
there'll be the cowpoke builders
and the hustlers all at play.
The law is just a business
and justice on the wane.
Everyone's an under-handed-gun.
Go cry "Come back Shane !"
