The famous actor Roger Moore
Was a character you just couldn’t ignore
From James Bond to The Persuaders
His fame shot up like an elevator

Prime minister Winston Churchill
Liked to enjoy fairground thrills
He worked really hard saving the country
But on his days off loved doing bungee

William Makepeace Thackeray
Was partial to a strawberry daiquiri
He was famous for his parody and satire
While sipping cocktails round the campfire
