Flanders & Swann - "Madeira, Mdear"

Lyrics to Madeira, Mdear :

She was young, she was pure,

She was new, she was nice,

She was fair, she was sweet seventeen.



He was old, he was vile,

And no stranger to vice,

He was base, he was bad, he was mean.



He had slyly inviegled her up to his flat,

To view his collection of stamps;

And he said as he hastened to put out the cat,

The wine, his cigar, and the lamps:



"Have some madeira, mdear,

You really have nothing to fear;

Im not trying to tempt you, that wouldnt be right,

You shouldnt drink spirits at this time of night.

Have some madeira, mdear,

Its so very much nicer than beer.

I dont care for sherry, one cannot drink stout,

And port is a wine I can well do without.

Its simply a case of chacun ' son gout.

Have some madeira, mdear!"



Unaware of the wiles of the snake in the grass,

Of the fate of the maiden who topes,

She lowered her standards by raising her glass,

Her courage, her eyes, and his hopes.



She sipped it, she drank it,

She drained it, she did,

And he quietly refilled it again,

And he said as he secretly carved one more notch

On the butt of his gold-handled cane:



"Have some madeira, mdear,

Ive got a small cask of it here,

And once its been opened you know it wont keep,

Do finish it up, it will help you to sleep.

Have some madeira, mdear,

Its really an excellent year.

Now if it were gin youd be wrong to say yes:

The evil gin does would be hard to assess

(Besides its inclined to affect my prowess),

Have some madeira, mdear."



Then there flashed through her mind what her mother had said

With her ante-penultimate breath:

"Oh my child should you look at the wine that is red

Be prepared for a fate worse than death!"



She let go her glass with a shrill little cry,

Crash! Tinkle! it fell to the floor.

When he asked, "What in heaven'" she made no reply

But put in a dash for the door.



"Have some madeira, mdear!"

Rang out down the hall loud and clear,

A tremulous cry that was filled with despair,

As she paused to take breath in the cool midnight air.



"Have some madeira, mdear!"

The words seemed to ring in her ear...

Until the next morning she woke up in bed,

With a smile on her lips and an ache in her head,

And a beard in her earhole that tickled and said:

"Have some madeira, mdear!"
