VERSATILE VERSE 3

But that could be quite hard if the pile won't lie flat
Its quite a difficult problem to combat

So better make sure that my scissors are sharp

Perhaps I'll try my hand at making a dress
In a beautiful velvet that's nice to caress

But that could be quite hard if the pile won't lie flat

lt's very nice to bake a cake
but I'm no good at that, need to find something else to make

Perhaps I'll try my hand at making a dress

There’s nothing so comforting as a delicious brew
And a lovely biscuit on which to chew

It’s very nice to bake a cake

I'll aim to see everything I've wanted to see
But I know I will miss a nice cup of tea

There's nothing so comforting as a delicious brew

When over the Chanel I will wander abroad
Wherever I fancy until I get bored

I’ll aim to see everything I’ve wanted to see

who knows where I'll venture when Covid is over
I will make for the coast and a ferry from Dover

When over the Chanel I will wander abroad

Once I get the hang of it I'll be quicker off the mark
and may even venture out in the dark

who knows where I'll venture when Covid is over

Whatever's on offer, I'll give it a go
Please allow for my start which may be slow

Once I get the hang of it I'll be quicker off the mark

I'll even consider a trip going solo
Or best of all join in a great game of polo

Whatever’s on offer, I’ll give it a go

With the sun on my face and wind in my hair
I feel young again and there's nothing I won't dare

I'll even consider a trip going solo

I hope I don't scare everyone in my way
But I love speed - it makes my day

With the sun on my face and wind in my hair

I won't listen, I'll get on my Segway and leave
Fast and furious, in and out of traffic I'll weave

I hope I don't scare everyone in my way

Should I see my doctor first and make sure that all’s okay
Or when he hears my plans will he tell me, “No way!”

I won’t listen, I’ll get on my Segway and leave

My heart's beating faster, I'm ready to go
I hope I don't faint, as it's a possibility I know

Should I see my doctor first and make sure that's all's okay?

Can’t think what new excitement awaits
I’m abseiling next week, I’ve bought inline skates

My heart’s beating faster, I’m ready to go

She's down safe and sound and no bones have been broken
and a passion for adventure has been awoken

Can't think what new excitement awaits

I made her rather wet and she wasn’t very happy
Cheer up said my neighbour, a bright cheerful chappy!

She’s down safe and sound and no bones have been broken

When I'm finally down the relief is so great
I sobbed emotionally all over my best mate

I made her rather wet and she wasn't very happy

I glide back down to the ground
slowly and gracefully without making a sound

When I'm finally down the relief is so great

That won't bother me as I rise above the clouds
I see little ants below, they’re the awestruck crowds

I glide back down to the ground

Then I can zoom through the sky like a bird
In a Biggles outfit and looking absurd

That won't bother me as I rise above the clouds

I'd need to be brave and take pilot lessons
I think I'm going to need hundreds of sessions.

Then I can zoom through the sky like a bird

I want to be swift and fly with the Red Arrows
don't want to get tipsy and be carried home in barrows

I'd need to be brave and take pilot lessons

To move all the pounds that I’ve added through Bake-Off
If I was a jumbo jet I woudn't be able to take off.

I want to be swift and fly with the Red Arrows
