What About My Toupee
As you know we're getting ready to move
Just a couple more days to go
Cathie insists on being prepared
No underwear for a month or so
Asked my dear wife where they're hiding
Said they're packed of course
Wondering why friends no longer come over
Could even be a reason for divorce
Afraid to leave my false choppers around
She'd certainly pack them for sure
And what about my most favourite toupee
Now that's more than I could endure
“Are you ready for Freddie?” Cathie asks
She takes that old saying to heart
She'll be up and about at the crack of dawn
Long before the Movers will start
But we get along as long as I remain calm
Never rock the marital dinghy
Without doubt I'll be walking the streets
No pants to cover my thingy
(Obviously wrote this before moving...
have since found my choppers but my toupee is still AWOL!)
