SEND ME ON A QUEST

 

Send me on a quest

To win your heart

Set me any task

And I will do my part

 

Across any ocean

I will gladly sail

Through seas of calm

And force ten gale

Across any mountain

I will gladly climb

No matter how long

I will take the time

 

Across any desert

On my hands and knees

I will whatever

I must do to please

ROSENCRANTZ AND GUILDENSTERN # 2

 

Rosencrantz and Guildenstern

Contrary to the rumour of their demise

Are presenting shows as Ant and Dec

In their most cunning disguise

I’VE ENROLLED MY WIFE # 2

 

I’ve enrolled my wife

On an evening class

So she will learn how to

 

Start a conversation

During the commercials

In the same way I do

MY CRAZY BROTHER IN LAW

 

My crazy brother in law

Has had a penis extension

Now visitors approach his

House with real apprehension

UNDER A SLATE GREY SKY

 

Under a slate grey sky

Or against a back drop of blue

Crossing bridges

Over river and stream

Thru woods and fields

Onward and upward

Over hill and vale

Riding the rails

The Locomotive speeds

Across the countryside

The marvel of the age

SMOKING KILLS

 

Smoking kills

Of that there is no doubt

Especially if my wife

Were to find out

NO DOMESTIC GODDESS

 

I am not by any means

A domestic goddess

To be perfectly honest

My house is a bloody mess

 

So by way of camouflaging

My domestic disgrace

I always keep on display

Above the fireplace

 

Get well soon cards

Displayed to be seen

By guests who think

I’ve been too ill to clean
