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

Of course our affair ended badly
We each went our own way so sadly
We both had regrets
Went home to our pets
Who welcomed us simply and gladly.

This town had a rat catcher bold

Went home to our pets
Whom we loved even more madly.

My cat was nice and she listened

This town had a rat catcher bold
He went into homes, it was told

The town had a rat catcher bold
He went into home I am told
He played a small pipe

This town had a rat catcher bold,
He went into towns, it is told
He played a small pipe
His hometown was Fife

I once had a Volkswagen car

I once had a Volkswagen car
Which I carefully hitched to a star

I once had a Volkswagen car
Which I carefully hitched to a star
Then sailed through the air

Sorry, that was a typo. Supposed to be forboDing. Thanks for going along with it.

arrived at a planet forboring
On which all volcanoes were roaring
There was nothing to do

Arrived at a planet forboring
On which all volcanoes were roaring
There was nothing to do
And no ladies loo

hollysteers Mon 13-Jul-26 18:56:43

I arrived at a planet forboring
On which all volcanoes were roaring
There was nothing to do
And no ladies loo
So that put an end to my whoring.

I look like the man in the moon

SpinDriftCoastal Tue 14-Jul-26 08:03:38

I look like the man in the moon
Because I got up too soon

GoldenLady Tue 14-Jul-26 15:06:22

I look like the man in the moon
Because I got up too soon
Think I'll go back to bed

I look like the man in the moon
Because I got up too soon
Think I'll go back to bed
Find a book I've not read

Magenta8 Tue 14-Jul-26 20:28:46

I look like the man in the moon
Because I got up too soon
Think I'll go back to bed
Find a book I've not read
And eat a boiled egg with a spoon

I really like breakfast in bed

I really like breakfast in bed
Except for the crumbs from the bread
