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

Then the sun shone and birds did sing
A golden glow lit up everything
Endless summer days
No rain,mist, or haze
We were happy with anything

No aches or pains, just cuts, bruises

No aches or pains, just cuts, bruises
Clever games with all our ruses

No aches or pains, just cuts, bruises
Clever games with all our ruses
I don't understand

Then the sun shone and birds did sing
A golden glow lit up everything
Endless summer days
No rain,mist, or haze

And to her heart warmth did it bring

She looked o’er the hills, sun and shade

She looked o’er the hills,sun and shade
And wandered thru a fern filled glade

Yes,it's got a bit mixed up! Can you start it again Magenta8?

crazyH Tue 12-May-26 14:58:24

Let’s go back:
No aches or pains, just cuts, bruises
Clever games with all our ruses
I don’t understand
How taps on the hand
Can now be called as ‘abuses’

Kids don’t play on the streets these days

Kids don’t play on the street these days
In front of screens is more their ways

Magenta8 Tue 12-May-26 16:27:43

Kids don't play on the streets these days
They fill their time in other ways

crazyH Tue 12-May-26 16:28:17

Kids don’t play on the street these days
In front of screens is more their ways
They don’t play Hopscotch

Clawdy Wed 13-May-26 14:40:31

Kids don't play on the streets these days
In front of screens is more their ways
They don't play Hopscotch
They just sit and watch

GoldenLady Wed 13-May-26 15:57:55

Kids don't play on the streets these days
In front of screens is more their ways
They don't play Hopscotch
They just sit and watch
But that's how a modern kid plays.

Monster trucks are the toy of the day
Best keep your feet out of their way

henetha Thu 14-May-26 12:45:41

Monster trucks are the toy of the day
Best keep your feet out of their way,
Or it's woosh and wham

Magenta8 Thu 14-May-26 13:10:43

Monster trucks are the toy of the day
Best keep your feet out of the way
Or it's whoosh and wham
Into legs they slam

crazyH Thu 14-May-26 13:43:14

Monster trucks are the toy of the day
Best keep your feet out of the way
Or it's whoosh and wham
Into legs they slam
And there’s not a lot you can say

At our age , we can only dream

GoldenLady Thu 14-May-26 15:11:34

At our age , we can only dream
And play quiet games, it would seem.

hollysteers Thu 14-May-26 16:24:34

At our age, we can only dream
And play quiet games, it would seem
We need a sit down

Clawdy Fri 15-May-26 16:40:16

At our age, we can only dream
And play quiet games, it would seem
We need a sit down
In a warm dressing gown

Magenta8 Fri 15-May-26 20:36:17

At our age, we can only dream
And play quiet games, it would seem
We need to sit down
In a warm dressing gown
And drink a hot chocolate with cream

When I was a teen I was wild

When I was a teen I was wild
With crazy excitement beguiled

When I was a teen I was wild
With crazy excitement beguiled
The whole world was mine
