It’s been said that March might bring snow
Just like the Beast five years ago.

It’s been said that March might bring snow
We can enjoy daffs all aglow

oops...

It’s been said that March might bring snow
Just like the Beast five years ago.
The frost and the ice

It’s been said that March might bring snow
Just like the Beast five years ago.
The frost and the ice
Won’t be very nice

It’s been said that March might bring snow
Just like the Beast five years ago.
The frost and the ice
Won’t be very nice
But then again, how do they know?

Perhaps we'll have flowers and spring

Perhaps we'll have flowers and spring
In March its a regular thing

Perhaps we'll have flowers and spring
In March its a regular thing
Should the Beast arrive

Perhaps we'll have flowers and spring
In March its a regular thing
Should the Beast arrive
Plants will still survive

Perhaps we'll have flowers and spring
In March its a regular thing
Should the Beast arrive
Plants will still survive
Garden birds at dawn will still sing.

The animals will produce young

The animals will produce young
And new spider webs will be strung
The days will grow longer

The animals will produce young
And new spider webs will be strung
The days will grow longer
The sun's getting stronger

The animals will produce young
And new spider webs will be strung
The days will grow longer
The sun's getting stronger
Wide open will windows be flung

There once was a young girl with plaits

There once was a young girl with plaits
She's a Gran on these online chats

There once was a young girl with plaits
She’s a Gran on these online chats
The time has flown by

There once was a young girl with plaits
She’s a Gran on these online chats
The time has flown by
But she does not sigh,

There once was a young girl with plaits
She’s a Gran on these online chats
The time has flown by
But she does not sigh,
She now spends her time with her cats.

Ah, where has the time quickly flown?

Ah, where has the time quickly flown?
If its passing I could postpone

Ah, where has the time quickly flown?
If its passing I could postpone
The things I regret

Ah, where has the time quickly flown?
If its passing I could postpone
The things I regret
Are many, you bet

Ah, where has the time quickly flown?
If its passing I could postpone
The things I regret
Are many, you bet
And I say ‘if only I’d known!’

But more cheerfully let’s move on

But more cheerfully let’s move on
And eat a warm buttered scone

But more cheerfully let’s move on
And eat a warm buttered scone
With thick cream and jam

But more cheerfully let’s move on
And eat a warm buttered scone
With thick cream and jam
Into my mouth I'll cram

But more cheerfully let’s move on
And eat a warm buttered scone
With thick cream and jam
Into my mouth I'll cram
In a minute it will be gone

Washed down with a hot cup of tea
