British Summertime

Showers, storms, drizzle, rain, The English ‘summer’s’ here again, It’s way too hot or way too cold, There’s no mid-range, it’s uncontrolled. We get three days of muggy heat,... No air, a storm and then repeat, But though rains fallen since early Jan, By May there’ll be a hosepipe ban! Whilst other countries cope with strains, Of tropical storms and hurricanes, The whole of England slows to a crawl, With the slightest wind and mild rainfall. When the sun is shining we say its muggy, When the rain is falling its way too soggy, With the lightest wind "we’re gonna freeze", Basically we just can’t be pleased! Whether heat or wind or driving rain, It’s very British to complain. So whether we’re too cold or we’re too hot, Seems we’re only happy when in fact we’re not!
