NONSENSICAL EPISODE # 3

 

When I close my eyes

I see Lasses in glasses

Tarts in carts

Girls in pearls

Flirts in skirts

Fillies in frillies

Girls in curls

Chics in nix

God I really need sex

HADRIAN’S WALL

 

The simple reason why

Hadrian’s Wall was built

Is that north of the border

The extremities wilt

As the wind doth blow

Right up your kilt

IT’S NOT HIP

 

Don’t get your hip tattooed

Because at the risk of being rude

It doesn’t look cool or chic

And it’ll make you look cheap

 

Don’t get your hip tattooed

Because at the risk of being rude

It doesn’t look cool or chic

And it’ll make you look cheap

THE SIXTIES

 

The sixties, what a decade

I was only five, when in 1960

The Beatles hit the scene

And the following year

JFK took office as President

In 1962 a very significant appointment,

That of Alf Ramsey as England Manager,

Who brought us the Wingless Wonders.

The reborn Manchester United

Rising phoenix like from the ashes of Munich

Won the FA Cup in 1963.

In 1964 I held hands with Carole Duffy,

A very wonderful event at the time,

1965 saw United win the League title

And the mini skirt first appeared

The latter was less significant when I was 10

Then in 66 England won the world cup

(And yes the ball did cross the line)

United won the League again the following year

And then fulfilling the dream,

So cruelly crushed 10 years before,

Manchester United won the European cup in 1968.

1969 was famously the year

That Linda McMahon first kissed me

Oh and Neil Armstrong walked on the moon.

For me it was a decade of dreams coming true

A time when I thought life just couldn’t get any better

And I was right, because then came the 70s

THAT LIVED IN LOOK

 

To give a house that

Lived in look only takes a tick

In fact, one lazy Sunday

Should really do the trick

THE RIGHT WEATHER

 

If you live in the United States

And the weather uses all of its charms

Wear a short-sleeved shirt

After all you have the right to bare arms

FAMILY INSURANCE

 

Money isn’t everything

That much is very true

But it makes sure the kids

Keep in touch with you
