I PICKED UP A HITCHHIKER TODAY

 

I picked up a hitchhiker today

I know you’re not supposed to

But as I knocked him down

It was the least I could do

WHEREVER MY FATHER IS RIGHT NOW # 1

 


Wherever my father is right now

I’m sure he’s looking down

But assuredly He is not dead

He’s just on the roof stealing lead

21st CENTURY NURSERY RHYMES # 172

 

Mary had a little horse

She rode bareback on her pony

But the little horse threw her off

Because her arse was bony

ARE YOU WEARING SOMETHING CHIC?

 

Are you wearing something chic?

On your figure oh so sleek

That’s beautifully figure hugger

To tantalise a horny bugger

AS JIMINY CRICKET FAMOUSLY SAID

As Jiminy Cricket famously said

“Let conscience be your guide”

It’s a simple enough philosophy

Listen to the voice of reason

Keep compassion in your heart

And integrity at your core

And you won’t go far wrong

HOW THEY EXPLOIT OUR COMPASSION

 

How they exploit our compassion

With emotional blackmail

They paint us

Pitiful tableaux’s

Of fly ridden waifs

Babies at barren breasts

Or portrait images

Of sad saucer eyed children

Beaten and bruised

Or maybe its pictures

Of Maltreated beasts

That pluck at your heartstrings

The tactics used are quite crude

But anything goes

In the “No holds barred”

World of charity fundraising

As long as they can extract

Our 3 pounds a month

While the poor unfortunates,

The sad stars of the charity show

Are merely lost leaders

RCN HYMN

 

From the wards of emphysema

To the floors of maternity

We are proud to all be members

Of the nursing fraternity

 

We work for the sake of patients

As keep our hospital clean:

And we fight the daily battles

In blue or white or green
