MY NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTION THIS YEAR

 

My New Year's resolution this year

Is hopefully an antidote to future resolutions

And to rid myself of the annual angst

I have come up with a simple solution

Which is to stop hanging out with people

Who ask me for my New Year's resolutions

NEW YEAR’S EVE IS ONE OF THE FEW

 

New Year’s Eve is one of the few

Acceptable times to wear body glitter

When you have a reasonable expectation

Of not being mistaken for a stripper

MY ONLY NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTION

My only New Year's resolution

Is to be more optimistic next year

By keeping my cup half-full

With either vodka, whiskey or beer 

NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTIONS ARE SOMETHING

 

New Year's resolutions are something

That go over the head of my brother

He just doesn’t seem to grasp their import

So they go in one year and out the other

CHRISTMAS DAY IN THE WORKHOUSE # 5

 

It’s Christmas Day in the workhouse

Just another grey day to endure

Jamie Oliver is cooking the dinner

So, no Turkey Twizzlers in store

NEW PUPILS

 

At the North Pole, For those

Not begun Schooling yet,

Must firstly be enrolled

And then taught the Elphabet

 

NEVER EVER CATCH A SNOWFLAKE

Never ever catch a snowflake

In your mouth

Until you’re sure all the birds

Have flown south
