My granddaughter loves to play nurse
Her patients are Barbies, with furs
They must be kept warm
And shielded from harm
Or else they might catch something worse!

I'm dizzy from all the hi-tech,
Seems like I am on the top deck

I'm dizzy from all the high tech
Seems like I am on the top deck
Oh no, don't look down

I'm dizzy from all the high tech
Seems like I am on the top deck
Oh no, don't look down,
Think that’s a ball gown

I'm dizzy from all the high tech
Seems like I am on the top deck
Oh no, don't look down,
Think that’s a ball gown
But what's that strange thing round her neck?

I think it might be a big snake

I think it might be a big snake
Or maybe a lump of fruit cake

GoldenLady Sun 24-Apr-22 15:25:07

I think it might be a big snake
Or maybe a lump of fruit cake
No, a necklace bizarre

I think it might be a big snake
Or maybe a lump of fruit cake
A necklace bizarre
Some sweets in a jar

I think it might be a big snake
Or maybe a lump of fruit cake
A necklace bizarre
Some sweets in a jar
But She should have stuck to the lake

What do you call a freeloader

What do you call a freeloader
A stinker! Is that an odour?

What do you call a freeloader
A stinker! Is that an odour?
It's a parasite

What do you call a freeloader
A stinker! Is that an odour?
It's a parasite
Who's grabby, too right

GoldenLady Mon 25-Apr-22 16:54:57

What do you call a freeloader
A stinker! Is that an odour?
It's a parasite
Who's grabby, too right
To remove him we'd need a big motor.

Reading the news is depressing

Reading the news is depressing
The outlook is poor, I'm guessing

Reading the news is depressing
The outlook is poor, I'm guessing
Let's hope for the best

lovebeigecardigans1955 Tue 26-Apr-22 16:18:43

Reading the news is depressing
The outlook is poor, I'm guessing
Let's hope for the best
Or give it a rest

GoldenLady Tue 26-Apr-22 16:20:54

Reading the news is depressing
The outlook is poor, I'm guessing
Let's hope for the best
Or give it a rest
And try to stop all of this stressing.

Coffee is best in a mug

crazyH Tue 26-Apr-22 16:22:51

Reading the news is depressing
The outlook is poor, I'm guessing
Let's hope for the best
Or give it a rest
Move on to matters more pressing

Delicious, I think we agree.

And leave all our troubles at bay
Turn off the news

And leave all our troubles at bay
Turn off the news
Wear those blue suede shoes
