AAHLL them tales iv global warmin, Soonded really quite alarmin; But wah still in the autumn season, `N me fingers is bloomin freezin; Aah've gor aahll me winter clo'es on, Lang sleeves te wipe me nose on; Though aahm wearin me warmest cap, Me neb's drippin like a tap; Me lugs feel like two icicles, There's chilblains on me test cycles; Aah wish the summer sun wud shine again.
