Dirty Dancing
I love to go dancing each week,
alas, a new partner I now urgently seek
No conversation, Joe was such a bore,
as we shuffled around the dance floor
We’d mastered a waltz and the tango.
but he didn’t quite ‘get’ the fandango
He’d say let’s try that dance move again -
crushing my tootsies, till I cry out in pain
I couldn’t walk when he broke my left toe
I said I'm sorry Joe, but you’ve just got to go
My plaster cast gets removed on Monday
In time a new partner will come my way
If you’re wondering where Joe dances now ...
he’s at the rear end of a pantomime cow!
