Well fancy that we’re getting quite fat
It’s ever so nice to have a slice
We’re stuffing our face in a beautiful place
And summer in Sennen goes on and on
Each Summer the Tourists come to Sennen to guzzle the fabulous cakes baked by the Bakers of the Heavenly Bakery and enjoy the beautiful song of the famous Songbirds of Sennen, who peck up the crumbs. Thinking to make Summer last all year round, the Bakers use cake crumbs to lure the birds into a cage. The trapped Songbirds are sad but, while their captors enjoy themselves, they quietly peck their way to freedom. The Tourists and the Bakers find the Birds gone and are lured into the cage themselves. And taught a sticky lesson!
