Cream filled cake must eat
My diet I’ll cheat
Then on bike to do a wheelie

A girl on trapeze

There is a Circus here in town
Stilt Walkers, Strong men and a Clown
A girl on trapeze
Who does things with ease

Hiding under seat

Hiding under seat
Ignore I entreat

I think clowns are almost creepy
They make me go trembly and weepy
Hiding under seat
Ignore I entreat
Go back to the nearest Teepee.

Can't find inspiration today
When everything seems dull and grey
Feel like a sad sack
Just can’t get zest back

Or our dear Queen
And all put our hands to the plough

My husband changed the clocks forward!

My husband changed the clocks forward!

How very extremely untoward

My husband changed the clocks forward!
How very extremely untoward
'Fall backward' it is
Don't get in a tizz
He can be awfully wayward.

Out on the wide seas

Think I'm getting the winter blues
Would help if you could plan a cruise
Out on the wide seas
Skirt blowing in the breeze
