Anns Window
Yes I used to climb through her window
Her Grandpa had a wall full of guns
Sweet Ann had me living in limbo
No sleep, but it was crazy fun
Her momma would come to the window
To talk while I cuddled the wall……………………..hid
Told momma she had 200 lb guy in her bed
Mum laughed and said is that all
Exhausted I lay on the mat
Ann had just left the room
An old arm I saw in the doorway
Pandemonium, yelling there soon.
So I sprung right in the small wardrobe
So sit bare butt on her heels
Painful , they looked under her bed……………wardrobe too small?
quite like a coffin it feels
Grandma saw the giant shadows
When I went to the one little room
Grandpa they said was mad too
But he knew every word of my tune.
