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

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
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, 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
To give a house that
Lived in look only takes
a tick
In fact, one lazy
Sunday
Should really do the
trick
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
Money isn’t everything
That much is very true
But it makes sure the
kids
Keep in touch with you
