VITAL INGREDIENT
Why don’t they make Zimberts anymore?
What happened, did they run out of that vital ingredient, up there, in that store?
I think we should write a letter of complaint.
You know, to the head saint.
Or at least let them know, we need more Zimberts.
The world’s run low.
It’s not fair.
It’s just selfish not to share.
Keeping all those vital ingredients, all the way up there.
At least give us some of our own, so we can make Zimberts down here.
If I can remember correctly,
To make a perfect Zimbert one would need a pinch of this, a dab of that.
Let’s not forget to add a slice of, oh my, I remember that.
But then there was something else, something quite special indeed. It wasn’t a Pinch or a dab,
Not even a slice, dash or a slab.
What was it?
A sprinkle, that was it,! But what was in it?
I forget.
And where is it from? Is that the key, to making the perfect Zimberts?
That one ingredient they won’t share or let us see.
Maybe.
But where was it from, could it be from elsewhere?Who knows, perhaps from even down there?
Although it was a long time ago, I remember a store. They won the Crown.
They made the best Zimberts in town.
That store burnt down.
There was a rumor going around.
They say some of those vital ingredients were never found.
They got too hot.
When mixed together, in certain weather,
Well I don’t care; I still say it’s terribly unfair, you can find good Zimberts anymore, anywhere.
Furthermore we have run low; We’ve only got the one you know.
Certainly we cherish what’s left.
And the Zimbert we do have is absolutely,
our
gift.
Happy Birthday
