In the old days, they used pen and ink
Remember the bottles of Quink
Blotting pads on desk ?
Ink splats so grotesque
With colours from black through to pink.

The inkpot sat in its own hole

In the old days, they used pen and ink
Remember the bottles of Quink
Blotting pads on desk ?
Ink splats so grotesque

In the old days, they used pen and ink
Remember the bottles of Quink
Blotting pads on desk ?

An opera singer from Carlisle
Could light up the room with a smile
He said with a grin
I'm off to Berlin
I’m joining the Berlin Beer Mile

His voice took on a different tone

An opera singer from Carlisle
Could light up the room with a smile
He said with a grin
I'm off to Berlin
To sing Lohengrin for a while.

Some people are so self-obsessed
It's all about what they possess
Such show offs are they
Who cares anyway?
They should stop and smell the roses

Mother nature knows what is best
She still survives though now hard pressed
The birds and the bees
The flowers and the trees
Could all use a well-deserved rest!

A farmer from York had a dream
That cows would produce double cream
It turned out alright
Though the cream wasn't white
And purple's a little extreme

Some dream about a simpler life
Away from politics and strife
Maybe Hebrides?
