LIMERICKS (Apr ‘25)

I'd hurry indoors in a fright
And get myself right out of sight
I'd tremble and shake

I'd hurry indoors in a fright
And get myself right out of sight
I'd tremble and shake
Maybe cause an earthquake

I'd hurry indoors in a fright
And get myself right out of sight
I'd tremble and shake
Maybe cause an earthquake
Wouldn't put up much of a fight

Better to be safe than sorry

Better to be safe than sorry,
Try not to get killed by a lorry,

Better to be safe than sorry,
Try not to get killed by a lorry,
Do keep your distance

Better to be safe than sorry
Try not to get killed by a lorry
Do keep your distance
On my insistence

Better to be safe than sorry
Try not to get killed by a lorry
Do keep your distance
On my insistence
I really don't want to worry

My driving skill's seen better days

My driving skill's seen better days
The roads around here are a maze

My driving skill's seen better days
The roads around here are a maze
Cars all go to fast

My driving skill's seen better days
The roads around here are a maze
Cars all go too fast
Close behind horns blast

My driving skill's seen better days
The roads around here are a maze
Cars all go too fast
Close behind horns blast,
The road rules nobody obeys.

Perhaps I'll buy a horse instead,

Perhaps I'll buy a horse instead,
Maybe he'll talk like Mister Ed

Perhaps I'll buy a horse instead,
Maybe he'll talk like Mister Ed
I’ll ride side-saddle

Perhaps I'll buy a horse instead,
Maybe he'll talk like Mister Ed
I'll ride side-saddle
Go for a paddle

Perhaps I'll buy a horse instead,
Maybe he'll talk like Mister Ed
I'll ride side-saddle
Go for a paddle,
But I'll fall off and hurt my head.

I might end up in A and E,

I might end up in A and E,
Be seen by that awful McPhee

That sure sounds a romantic date
With someone who is just a ‘mate’
They do it in Venice

I might end up in A and E
Be seen by that awful McPhee
She's in charge tonight

I might end up in A and E
Be seen by that awful McPhee
She's in charge tonight
She'd give me a fright

I might end up in A and E
Be seen by that awful McPhee
She's in charge tonight
She'd give me a fright,
I can't wait to be just set free.

It's Bank Holiday and it's wet,

It's Bank Holiday and it's wet
It's always raining, you can bet

It's Bank Holiday and it's wet
It's always raining, you can bet
Just stay in and read

It's Bank Holiday and it's wet
It's always raining, you can bet
Just stay in a read
In bed if you need

It's Bank Holiday and it's wet
It's always raining, you can bet
Just stay in and read
In bed if you need
It's sunny where I am, you bet!

Today is Memorial Day

Today is Memorial Day
Never heard of it, I must say
