Glad to do my friends a favour, doesn't cost me to be nice,

Enter, M'sieur, lay down yer load, unlace yer boots and rest from the road.
This weights a ton, travel's a curse, but here we strive to lighten your purse.
Here the goose is cooked, here the fat is fried, and nothing's overlooked till I'm satisfied...
Food beyond compare, food beyond belief, mix it in a mincer and pretend it's beef.
Kidney of a horse, liver of a cat, filling up the sausages with this and that!
Residents are more than welcome. Bridal suite is occupied!
Reasonable charges plus some little extras on the side!
Charge'em for the lice, extra for the mice, two percent for looking in the mirror twice!
Here a little slice, there a little cut, three percent for sleeping with the window shut!
When it comes to fixing prices, there are lots of tricks he knows,
how it all increases all them bits and pieces, Jesus! It's amazing how it grows!
MASTER OF THE HOUSE, QUICK TO CATCH YER EYE, NEVER WANTS A PASSER BY TO PASS HIM BY.
SERVANT TO THE POOR, BUTLER TO THE GREAT, COMFORTER, PHILOSOPHER AND LIFE-LONG MATE!
EVERYBODY'S BOON COMPANION, GIVES'EM EVERY THING HE'S GOT.
DIRTY BUNCH OF GEEZERS, JESUS! WHAT A SORRY LITTLE LOT!
