I love to stroll through a garden
If private - I beg your pardon
I dance round the pond
Touch each leafy frond

When the alarm goes off at night
I wake up with a startled fright
Why is it so dark?

When the alarm goes off at night
I wake up with a startled fright
Why is it so dark?
Why did the dog bark?

When the alarm goes off at night
I wake up with a startled fright
Why is it so dark?
Why did the dog bark?
And what is that bright flashing light?

Police cars are all down the lane.

Police cars are all down the lane
Making enough noise to raise Cain

Police cars are all down the lane
Making enough noise to raise Cain
It's old burglar Bill

Police cars are all down the lane
Making enough noise to raise Cain
It's old burglar Bill
With his sack to fill

Police cars are all down the lane
Making enough noise to raise Cain
It's old burglar Bill
With his sack to fill
But is Bill really to blame?

I’ve been waiting on hold for an hour

GoldenLady Wed 13-Jul-22 14:01:42

I’ve been waiting on hold for an hour
I should have just taken a shower

crazyH Wed 13-Jul-22 14:13:01

I’ve been waiting on hold for an hour
I should have just taken a shower
I hear them chitchat

NanKate Wed 13-Jul-22 16:10:38

I’ve been waiting on hold for an hour
I should have just taken a shower
I hear them chitchat
They’ve got it off pat

Mollygo Wed 13-Jul-22 17:19:39

I’ve been waiting on hold for an hour
I should have just taken a shower
I hear them chitchat
They’ve got it off pat
They haven’t time. . . just the power.

They’re digging the roads up near us

lovebeigecardigans1955 Thu 14-Jul-22 09:31:14

They're digging the roads up near us
And the hole's too wide for the bus

Mine Thu 14-Jul-22 13:47:02

It's wheel may go down it

Nell8 Thu 14-Jul-22 19:29:39

They're digging the roads up near us
And the hole's too wide for the bus
Its wheel may go down it
And, just to crown it,

Grany Thu 14-Jul-22 20:38:08

They're digging the roads up near us
And the hole's too wide for the bus
Its wheel may go down it
And, just to crown it,
Workmen will start shouting and cuss

All work and no play around here

Mine Thu 14-Jul-22 22:00:06

All work an no play around here
No time to go for a beer

NanKate Fri 15-Jul-22 07:21:24

All work an no play around here
No time to go for a beer
I'd better get started
I’m just too good hearted

lovebeigecardigans1955 Fri 15-Jul-22 08:40:19

All work and no play around here
No time to go for a beer
I'd better get started
I'm just too good hearted
Too heavy a workload I fear.

Why don't they ask Mr Lazy?

Mollygo Fri 15-Jul-22 09:13:24

Why don't they ask Mr Lazy
Job-wise, his mem’ry is hazy

Jangran99 Sat 16-Jul-22 01:04:32

Why don't they ask Mr Lazy
Job-wise, his mem’ry is hazy
He is such a jerk

NanKate Sat 16-Jul-22 07:58:35

He is such a jerk
An even bigger berk

Squiffy Sat 16-Jul-22 08:19:52

Why don't they ask Mr Lazy
Job-wise, his mem’ry is hazy
He is such a jerk
An even bigger berk
Feel sorry for his wife, Daisy.

Perhaps she will start a new life

GoldenLady Sat 16-Jul-22 15:14:47

Perhaps she will start a new life
She's tired of being his wife

Grany Sat 16-Jul-22 16:28:20

Perhaps she will start a new life
She's tired of being his wife
I've heard she's up sticks

lovebeigecardigans1955 Sat 16-Jul-22 17:20:59

Perhaps she will start a new life
She's tired of being his wife
I've heard she's upped sticks
I asked her, "how's tricks?"
