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 need a new window cleaner
And make him hopefully keener

I need a new window cleaner
And make him hopefully keener
The last one I had

I need a new window cleaner
And make him hopefully keener
The last one I had
Was a bit of a lad

I need a new window cleaner
And make him hopefully keener
The last one I had
Was a bit of a lad
Always quite drunk and a leaner

He peered through the curtain last week

He peered through the curtain last week
That was really amazing cheek

He peered through the curtain last week
That was really amazing cheek
So I punched him hard

So I punched him hard
I’m always on guard

That was really amazing cheek
So I punched him hard
I’m always on guard
My punch made him seriously leak!

I doubt if he’ll try that again

Magenta8 Wed 14-Jan-26 19:32:11

I doubt if he'll try that again
I'm well up to dealing with men

crazyH Wed 14-Jan-26 21:35:57

I doubt if he'll try that again
I'm well up to dealing with men
My muscles are large

hollysteers Thu 15-Jan-26 00:10:47

I doubt if he’ll try that again
I’m well up to dealing with men
My muscles are large
I’ve worked on a barge

GoldenLady Thu 15-Jan-26 14:14:58

I doubt if he’ll try that again
I’m well up to dealing with men
My muscles are large
I’ve worked on a barge
And once in an animal pen

A delicate snowflake I'm not

Ashcombe Thu 15-Jan-26 14:34:25

A delicate snowflake I'm not
I'm reckoned to be rather hot

MollyNew Thu 15-Jan-26 16:14:24

A delicate snowflake I'm not
I'm reckoned to be rather hot
I am quite a catch

friendlygingercat Thu 15-Jan-26 18:12:40

A delicate snowflake I'm not
I'm reckoned to be rather hot
I am quite a catch
No man is my match

hollysteers Thu 15-Jan-26 19:00:58

A delicate snowflake I’m not
I’m reckoned to be rather hot
I am quite a catch
No man is my match
But for love I give not a jot.

I’m perfectly fine by myself

BrightandBreezy Thu 15-Jan-26 23:59:22

I'm perfectly fine by myself
Have fun and don't feel on the shelf

Magenta8 Fri 16-Jan-26 07:34:52

I'm perfectly fine by myself
Have fun and don't feel on the shelf
I do as I please

henetha Fri 16-Jan-26 11:10:30

I'm perfectly fine by myself
Have fun and don't feel on the shelf
I do as I please,
If no-one agrees,

crazyH Fri 16-Jan-26 14:47:48

I'm perfectly fine by myself
Have fun and don't feel on the shelf
I do as I please,
If no-one agrees,
They can just bugger off to hell

I neither smoke, nor drink or swear

GoldenLady Fri 16-Jan-26 15:18:33

I neither smoke, nor drink or swear
But you just said "Hell" pretty clear! [hmmm]

Magenta8 Fri 16-Jan-26 16:15:49

I neither, smoke, nor drink or swear
But you just said "Hell" pretty clear
You said bugger too

pably15 Fri 16-Jan-26 18:13:05

I neither, smoke, drink, or swear
But you just said "Hell" pretty clear
You said bugger too
Now, that gives us a clue

hollysteers Fri 16-Jan-26 18:26:56

You are not a sweet prim old dear.

Well who gives a toss what they think?

Well who gives a toss what they think?
OK, so I smoke, swear and drink
