I want another lovely slice
I'm not disparaging the blueberry pie,
But rhubarb tart is oh so very nice!
A rhubarb what? A rhubarb tart!
A what-barb tart? A rhubarb tart!
I want another slice of rhubarb tart
The principles of modern philosophy
Were postulated by Decartes
Discarding everything he wasn't certain of
He said, "I think, therefore I am a rhubarb tart!"
A rhubarb what? A rhubarb tart!
A Rene who? Rene Decartes!
Poor mutt, he thought he was a rhubarb tart
A rhubarb tart has fascinated all the poets
Especially the immortal bard
He made Richard the Third call out at Bosworth Field
'My Kingdom for a slice of rhubarb tart!"
Immortal what? Immortal tart!
A rhubarb that? A rhubarb bard!
As rhymes go, that is really pretty bad!
Since Wassily Kadinsky and Paul Klee
Laid down the axioms of modern art
Even Jackson Pollock and Piet Mondrain
Prefered to paint a slice of rhubarb tart
Wassi who? A wassi-ly.
Kandin who? A Kandin-sky
And how did he get in there for a start?
Read all the existentialist philosophers
Like Schopenhauer and Jean-Paul Sartre
Even Matin Heidegger agrees on one thing:
Eternal happiness is rhubarb tart!!!
A rhubarb what? A rhubarb tart!
Jean-Paul who? Jean-Paul Sartre!
That sounds just like a rhyme from Lionel Bartre.
And so re....
'Member whether you're a bee-keeper,
Accountant, tree surgeon, or informant,
Our advice to you is always go to work,
On a slice of rhubarb tart!
