This I've got to try. I love Marmite. Been looking on the net and I see a few supermarkets within a few miles of me stock it.

Gorgonzola!

GORGONZOLA
As sung by Leslie Sarony, circa 1928

I'm very fond of veg'tables; I'm very fond of meat.
In fact, I'm fond of anything that's really good to eat.
I'm fond of fish and fruit and all the rest,
But here's the thing I really love the best:

Gorgonzola, gorgonzola!
Three cheers for the green, white and blue!
Gorgonzola, gorgonzola!
It's good for me and oh so good for you.
It's very labor-saving when a dinner party comes.
You leave it on the table and it eats up all the crumbs.
Gorgonzola, gorgonzola!
Three cheers for the green, white and blue!

Now in the ballroom people want a new dance ev'ry year,
And what is it that jumps about and gives them the idea?
Gorgonzola, gorgonzola!
Three cheers for the green, white and blue!

I'm very fond of gambling and I love to see a race.
A week ago today the grocer's handicap took place.
Each owner ran a cheese. Now I don't boast.
They shouted as my cheese went past the post

Gorgonzola, gorgonzola!
Three cheers for the green, white and blue!
Gorgonzola, gorgonzola!
It's good for me and oh so good for you.
With cheddar second, stilton third, the rest all sprang along.
Who was it came home miles in front and still was going strong?
Gorgonzola, gorgonzola!
Three cheers for the green, white and blue!

'Twas in Trafalgar Bay the famous battle's won at last.
The flag has gone but what is Nelson nailing to the mast?
Gorgonzola!

Gorgonzola, gorgonzola!
Three cheers for the green, white and blue!
Gorgonzola, gorgonzola!
It's good for me and oh so good for you.
Perpetual motion can't be done, the wise men tried to prove.
But get a ... of stilton; see what's always on the move.
Gorgonzola, gorgonzola!
Three cheers for the green, white and blue!
