“Did you know that ‘shish’ means skewer.”
Mick informed me quite late one night.
With Kebabs on the Barbie he told me
There’s a secret for doing them right.

This one fell by the wayside in November , everyone must have been tied up with Christmas shopping - lets see if we can get it going as well

“Did you know that ‘shish’ means skewer.”

It’s like any bloody barbie
out the experts come in droves
but there’s few who really know
about Kebabs – I’m one of those

The secrets in the marinade
you make to baste the meat
crushed garlic, mint and red wine
make them taste a bloody treat

mkc

The best way to prepare 'em
in my delighted wish;
is have the tasty shish
cooked for me by my harem.

nice rhyme Nev - love harem-prepare'em . . . but why not swap the first two lines about so you stay in pattern?

Well in my delighted wish -
the best way to prepare'em
is by having the tasty shish
cooked for me by a harem

But going back to Wazza (and Mick)
and Barbie kebabs ay mate?
Well Barbie might not be happy
and Ken'd be bloody irate

Tidied it up a bit - keep it going folks

“Barbie’s a blonde – what would she know?”
asked Mick in tones rambunctious
“and Ken has had a skinful
and he’s barely even conscious.”

Well Ken'd had a skin-full,
but he wished that he'd had fewer
when Mick the shish kebab king
ran him straight through with a skewer

Now Mick is doing time
out at the Goulburn pen.
He reckons life is shish
since he kebabbed old Ken.

I said to Mick “That’s it old mate
Enough with kebabs for tonight
My missus is cooking me fillet of beef
And she knows how I like it. Alright?
