Full of dentists smug and clean

Always earnest, always keen

Never dirty, never mean.

Full of surgeons, squat and stout,

Sometimes in and sometimes out.

Reading, you are ugly, grim,

Sunless, smokey, squalid, dim,

And yet in some parts strangely trim.

Your factories shine against the sky

And in your streets the babies cry.

You have bloody butchers’ shops

Filled with fat gruesome chops,

Confectioners with no acid drops,

Fishmongers, greengrocers, bakers,

Shoe shops, clothes shops, undertakers.
