FORTUNE COOKIE

 

When you’ve finished your dinner

A fortune cookie would suit yer

But if there is no fortune in it

That means you don’t have a future

THE INVENTOR OF THE ALLEN KEY

 

The inventor of the Allen key

Made nothing off it

Despite the fact that

It certainly turned a profit

IF A PAIR IS A TWOSOME # 1

 

If a pair is a twosome

And a trio is a threesome

A quartet, a foursome

Then solo is a handsome

I VISIT MY GRANDAD REGULARLY

 

I visit my grandad regularly

Even though he’s a little daft

He has the windows open when

He makes me play draughts

APPARENTLY A GOOD COMPOST HEAP SHOULD

 

Apparently, a good compost heap should

Get hot enough to poach an egg on it,

But not so hot it would cook a lobster

Well poached or not I am not eating it 

MY HUSBAND IS LIKE A PETROL MOWER

My husband is like a petrol mower

Although he is considerably slower

They are both difficult to get started

Emit foul smells when they’ve farted

And are normally caked in grime

And they only work half the time


I'M A GARDENER AND I'M OK

I'm a gardener and I'm ok

I sleep in the allotment shed all day

I dress in comfy clothing,

That my wife would throw away

Oh I'm happy on the allotment

As I’m not in her way

 

(Sung to the tune of Monty Python's “I'm a Lumberjack”)
