Learning English is easy peasy lemon squeezy,
You've just got to listen carefully,
Look at me, it comes so naturally,
Don't be flabbergasted, I'm a scholar, you'll see
First, put your thinking topper on,
Brian learnt us the lesson,
Blimey! did I got it wrong?
Oh, hang on!
Teach ! The angels are in the details,
No wait devils, idioms are easy to fail,
But we still have grammar to unveil,
Shall we set sail?
'Cause never mind the grammar, English lit is where I shine :
Jane Austen guided me on how to marry fine,
Du Maurier turned me worried of this angel of mine,
Or I'll be next in line.
So take my advice, and you'll speak with ease,
Use complicated words whenever you please,
And if you ever make a mistake, don't let it trouble you,
Simple blame the French, that's what I always do.
*Brian is a well known French character that used to be in old English grammar book that French people studied at school.
