Cheap Entertainment

Cheap entertainment 

We didn’t need computers
To keep us entertained
We didn’t need no Donkey Kong
We had that Ludo game
We didn’t need no gadgets
To count the steps, we’ve gone
We just had a skipping rope
And the salt and pepper song
We didn’t need no fancy gym
Helping us keep fit
We just had a hoola hoop
A-spinning on our hip
We didn’t need no High-Tec firm
Selling expensive things
We were quite contented
With a yoyo on a string
We didn’t need a mobile phone
Forever on our faces
We’d get out, walk about
And explore some brand-new places
