They poached the last rhino
In our local reserve
Far reducing our natural wealth;
She was killed for her horn
‘Cos some rich man was worn
And just couldn’t raise one himself.

So sad, an indictment for our shallow race
Such loss,
‘Cos his dick doesn’t rise!
Whilst a child rhino grieves,
This arsehole believes
He’s a man in the young ladies’ eyes.

Guys, the years will advance
So don’t take the chance
You may need your glasses or dentures;
But the answer is here
In good wholesome beer
To maintain all your amorous adventures.

And if all the world knew
This fact to be true
Glasses would always be brimmin’
And rhinos would be
Safe, happy and free
And we’d have a lot more smiling women!

We apologise to our more sensitive readers; however, Gilroy’s feels very strongly about this subject and if anyone knows anything about the cruel practice please call the Krugersdorp police or Gil.  Thank you.

Gilroy Babes

The time has come the walrus said
to rapturous applause.
To pop across to Gilroy's
for the 4 O'clock "Up Yours"

And so, aboard the owl's yacht
they all unfurled full sail,
and sped across the dirt road
for a pint of Gilroy's Ale.

When at last the walrus said
I think I've had my fill,
We must return tomorrow
For another pint with Gil

(Steve Gilroy 1886)
