Gilbert Keith Chesterton - The Englishman
Work rating: Low

St George he was for England, 
And before he killed the dragon 
He drank a pint of English ale 
Out of an English flagon. 
For though he fast right readily 
In hair-shirt or in mail, 
It isn`t safe to give him cakes 
Unless you give him ale. 

St George he was for England, 
And right gallantly set free 
The lady left for dragon`s meat 
And tied up to a tree; 
But since he stood for England 
And knew what England means, 
Unless you give him bacon 
You mustn`t give him beans. 

St George he is for England, 
And shall wear the shield he wore 
When we go out in armour 
With battle-cross before. 
But though he is jolly company 
And very pleased to dine, 
It isn`t safe to give him nuts 
Unless you give him wine.
