Hot Buttered Bland - (He's Got) 54 Copies of Peter Benchley's Jaws

He's always been in love with...

He prides himself on being
A cover lover of books he's never read
He's taken in by a glorious font

There's a shiny cover at the front of the store
An implausible shark starts to implore
He's got 54 copies of Peter Benchley's, Jaws

He's always been in love with...

He moves the books aside
Slots in the latest copy with a palpable sigh
And standing back he begins to sigh

Cos the spines aren't creased and the pages aren't turned
They're neatly stacked on his bedsit floor
He's got 55 copies of Peter Benchley's, Jaws

He's got 54 copies of Peter Benchley's, Jaws
He's got 22 copies of Thomas Hardy's, Jude
He's got 43 copies of The Old Man and the Sea
He's got 25 copies of Su Tong's, Rice
