Takeaway Blues

Last weekend my dad tried
A new Indian takeaway
He said it was very good
But he suffered the next day

He was violently sick
And was rushed into hospital
But he’s on the mend
And has no ill effects at all

The bhajis contained tulip bulbs
Obviously not the right thing
The hospital has said
He won't be out until the spring
