Have we got time for another?
What, wine? Oh no let me recover
Well maybe a sherry
Gin from a berry
Or a drop of fine malt to discover

That's another bank holiday gone
Played table tennis and ping pong
Did marking and prep
Everything's done, yep
Now I’m ready for a sing-song

My singing voice is more a screech

Back to normal again, ding dong.

Postman, my parcel is missing
You might just have heard it hissing
They've bought me a snake
Likes humans, and cake

Postman, my parcel is missing
You might just have heard it hissing
They've bought me a snake
Likes humans, and cake
And it often enjoys kissing. shock

Often dressed up as a jester

With caps with bells instead of crowns
But now they wear suits
And faux leather boots
And party political gowns!

And graveyard ghosts make me turn white
They peer through windows
And the fear just grows
