LIMERICKS (Apr ‘25)

Can keep out of trouble that way
The Devil tempts idlers, they say
But we're idling right now!

Can keep out of trouble that way
The Devil tempts idlers, they say
But we're idling right now confused
I like it ...and how!
I should work but I'd much rather play!

The sun is now shining its brightest

The sun is now shining its brightest
My ‘whites’ for once, are the whitest

My ‘whites’ for once, are the whitest
No work to be done?!

The sun is now shining its brightest
My ‘whites’ for once, are the whitest
No work to be done?!
Not going for a run?

I need sun as I'm the lightest

I so need to top up my tan

I so need to top up my tan
Some new summer clothes are my plan

Some new summer clothes are my plan
To make me look good
I must forgo pud

It's more will power I need for sure

To be healthy, slim and pure

To be healthy, slim and pure
I'll start tomorrow

To be healthy, slim and pure
I'll start tomorrow
I've had enough sorrow

It's more will power I need for sure
To be healthy, slim and pure
I'll start tomorrow
I've had enough sorrow
Eating salad must be my cure

There must be an easier way

There must be an easier way
For ideas I'll gladly pay

There must be an easier way
For ideas I'll gladly pay.
You could try a fast?
Oh no, I wont last
To diet I'd better delay.
