Calypso
The class is on a school trip, the journey's taking long
It’s time for refreshments, but something has gone wrong!
The teacher's got a cardboard box with drinks in
Is that what I think it is??

Calypso, Calypso
Get that filthy drink away from me
Calypso, Calypso
Water, sugar and E163
Calypso, Calypso
Poison in a carton, child abuse
Calypso, Calypso
Curiously orange plastic juice

The cup is corrugated, the straw is red and thin
But which is the sharp end so I can put it in?
I guess the first taste isn't quite so bad
But plastic waits at the end

Calypso, Calypso
Get that filthy drink away from me
Calypso, Calypso
Water, sugar and E163
Calypso, Calypso
Poison in a carton, child abuse
Calypso, Calypso
Curiously orange plastic juice
Calypso, Calypso
Made in Hemel Hempstead, did you know?
Calypso, Calypso
Not to be confused with “Calippo”
Calypso, Calypso
Shouldn’t be allowed in schools today
Calypso, Calypso
Come to think of it, do they still even make it anyway?
