Only then will I head off home
And sort out my wet hair with a comb
I'll try a new style
With which I'll beguile
Everyone wherever I roam

I'll charm everybody I meet

I think it might scare passers by
Or maybe attract a nice guy

I think it might scare passers by
Or maybe attract a nice guy
Your luck could be in
Put on your best grin

I think it might scare passers by
Or maybe attract a nice guy
Your luck could be in
Put on your best grin
It's probably worth a try!

A Ghost show to give me a fright
Hamlet is the play
It sure is not gay
William Shakespeare sure knew how to write

I'll be on the edge of my seat
Knees shaking and wobbly feet
Devour every word
However absurd

Magenta8 Tue 14-Apr-26 20:05:03

I'll be on the edge of my seat
Knees shaking and wobbly feet
Devour every word
However absurd
At the end they are all dead meat

Think I’ll try comedy next time
I prefer that to things sublime
I’ll joke and make folk laugh
With many a gaff
No laughter is surely a crime.

In pencil that's wobbly and faint
