Versatile Verse 3

Lets have a dram to pep up this wee drink
Then spare some time to have a think

Would it be wise to try a Highland fling?

Pocket in which he carried a cup
Also a hip flask, when I filled it up

Lets have a dram to pep up this wee drink

Sorry
Then reached for his zip
Pocket in which he carried a cup

@Mollygo - is there a next line?

He said, “Can you spare a sip?”
Then reached for his zip

The flask of coffee came in handy
And along came a man who was rather bandy

He said 'Can you spare a sip?'

No one in sight to disturb my thought
I took out the sandwich that I had bought.

The flask of coffee came in so handy

I sat on the rocks , and paddled lime old
The day was fresh and the water was cold

No one in sight to disturb my thought

I walked by the estuary, down to the sea
A very peaceful walk, no one to see.

I sat on the rocks , and paddled lime old

Relaxing somewhere with my closest kin
Or just doing anything except staying in!

I walked by the estuary, down to the sea

Hopefully tomorrow something will come along
My dreams of a pleasant summer are still strong

Relaxing somewhere with my closest kin

So now I've got to take my enjoyment where I can
As all my hopes and dreams have gone down the pan.

Hopefully tomorrow something will come along

It's the only little luxury I can get this summer
My trip abroad got cancelled it really was a bummer

So now Ive got to take my enjoyment where I can

I like to keep a fluffy bath towel close at hand
while drinking champagne in the tub; don't care which brand.

It's the only little luxury I can get this summer

But not to bring binoculars, a distant view is better
Especially when I'm stepping in getting wetter and wetter

I like to keep a fluffy bath towel close at hand

There’s one rogue in the monastery who likes to have a peek
I’ve sent a note to tell him I’ll be swimming nude next week,

But not to bring binoculars, a distant view is better

Or maybe buy a hot tub and invite some friends around
My neighbours are monks, so stay fully clothed and make no sound

There’s one rogue in the monastery, who likes to have a peek

At this rate, my garden seems the only place I’ll enjoy
So settling for what I have is the tactic I'll employ

Or maybe buy a hot tub and invite some friends around

A visit to Antarctica, that was sooo chilly!
A climb up Everest, that was too hilly ?

At this rate, my garden seems the only place I’ll enjoy

All other holidays seem dull and boring
I can’t lounge on the beach it’s far more fun exploring

A visit to Antarctica, that was sooo chilly!

I'll stay in GB until I can go cruising once more
As travel on liners is something I adore.

All other holiday seem dull and boring

Hot chocolate or coffee, a hot cup of tea
after my travels will satisfy me

I'll stay in GB until I can go cruising once more

East may be exotic, I prefer my home more
The heating is on and I’m closing the door.

Hot chocolate or coffee, a hot cup of tea . . .

So back in the camel to civilisation
And hasten away from that alien nation

East may be exotic, I prefer my home more

Such seductive sites to lure you away
And sand in your bits, no incentive to stay

So back in the camel to civilisation
