72 Miles From The Sea

Sunday 15 January 2023

I got a job at the carnival and

The hall of mirror was my selection

But it wasn’t what I thought

And it was a bad choice on reflection

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall,

Humpty Dumpty had a great fall.

And the trains were delayed for hours

While we were in Spain

I bought a Rolex from an Algerian

Which turned out to be a fake

I’ll never see those 10 Euros again

The Russian Airforce are firing

Amazon missiles at Syria

They are so called as they keep

Being left with a neighbour

Are you wearing beer goggles?

That’s a definite I reckon

Because I look like Iain Dowie

But you see David Beckham

One day in a far more caring world

Every chicken that ever lives

Will be able to cross the road without

Being judged on their motives

Foghorn Leghorn went to town

On the bus with the other day trippers

But not to sight see, he went to KFC

Because of the chicken strippers
