I know I spoil my dog rotten
Bought him a jacket, pure cotton
And wellington boots
To cover his toots

But he isn’t fond of my cat,
He refuses to share the mat

But he isn’t fond of my cat,
He refuses to share the mat
The cat wins each match

Temperatures will start to descend

The summer is nearing its end
Temperatures will start to descend
Thank goodness, I say
Hot flushes at bay

But he isn’t fond of my cat,
He refuses to share the mat
The cat wins each match
Because he can't catch
But he is quite an acrobat.

For adding an out of place line.

The postman brought me a letter

crazyH Mon 11-Oct-21 11:11:36

Remember to refresh each time
Or else you might write the wrong rhyme

I'd love to be a fly on the wall
And hear all the lies, short and tall

Which told me I must do better!
But I'm not sure why

The postman brought me a letter
Which told me I must do better!
But I`m not sure why
Standards are so high
I did my best, I’m so bitter

henetha Tue 12-Oct-21 11:09:31

I won’t be working hard again
I’ll smile and jump onto a train
I’ll leave all behind
Forget all the grind,
I'm retired, as I should explain.
