EVEN MORE VERSATILE VERSE !

But I’ll save that for later, when I sit down
I'm just trying on my new ball gown

The one I'll wear to celebrate

Actually,I’d rather be drinking gin
The fruity kind, that sort of thing

But I’ll save that for later, when I sit down

The time creeps up
While I’m drinking tea from a china cup

Actually,I’d rather be drinking gin

A pile of jobs to undertake
No time for a tea break

The time creeps up

Safety first will have to be my motto
No boozy lunches and getting blotto

A pile of jobs to undertake

I must be careful not to add to the NHS burden
Don't want to add to the work of any surgeon

Safety first will have to be my motto

But the weeds grow faster than I can hoe
Three times now I've hit my toe

I must be careful not to add to the NHS burden

In saying ‘I’ll get my gardener to sort it’
Meanwhile I'm doing it myself, a bit

But the weeds grow faster than I can hoe

The weeds will be banished to the compost
I hope folks won’t think I’m pompous

In saying ‘I’ll get my gardener to sort it’

Waiting for the wildflowers to bloom
Then my garden will have no more room

The weeds will be banished to the compost

But I'm not going to worry about money now
We will get it paid somehow

waiting for the wildflowers to bloom

But I'm not going to worry about money now
We will get it paid

waiting for the wildflowers to bloom

I'll have to wait and get in someone skilled
But scared to think how much I'll be billed.

But I'm not going to worry about money now

No, that would definitely beat the purpose
thinking of it, dh and DIY definitely makes me nervous

I'll have to wait and get in someone skilled

I’d like the drive paved in a herringbone pattern
In the middle, I could probably hang a lantern?

No, that would definitely beat the purpose

Maybe I can persuade DH to do some house maintenance
And improve the garden with new gates at the entrance

I’d like the drive paved in a herringbone pattern

That's my lockdown exercise for today
Looks like this will continue well into May

maybe I can persuade dh to do some house maintenance

All public toilets have long been shut
So I’m dancing with legs crossed and wriggling my butt

That’s my lockdown exercise for today

But I'm hoping for ice cream and fish and chips by the sea
And then rush home as we really need a wee

All public toilets have long been shut

Just persevere it'll soon be summer
if we're still in lockdown oh what a bummer

But I'm hoping for ice cream and fish and chips by the sea

Enjoy the sunshine and smell the flowers
There maybe rain, just April showers

Just persevere it’ll soon be summer

Lockdown is great for reflecting on the past
But don't dwell on the day you gasp your last

Enjoy the sunshine and smell the flowers

We never get a second chance at life
Enjoy the fun, not the strife.

Lockdown is great for reflecting on the past

You only live once, that's right I know
So live it to the full before you go

We never get a second chance at life

And he's pretty fine as well
with a line he sure can sell

You only live once, that's right I know
