HEAR NO EVIL, SEE NO EVIL, SPEAK NO EVIL
We decided it was only fair ,
As we had the space, and we did care
That my mother and father-in-law
Stay with us, and so they did!
What happened one day
I’m about to say!
My father in law could not see too well
My mum saw well but her hearing not swell.
She goes into the bathroom and
Steps into the shower,
5 minutes later my father in law
Goes into the bathroom and sits
On the throne, at 92 he could not see
And at 86 my mom an absolute dear,
Could not a thing hear.
Our domestic helper was in stitches
Doubled up laughing
And we much the same.
Patsy and Charlie unaware of
Each other, simply relaxing!
Mom finished her shower and
And to her horror, saw Charlie sitting
On the thrown, she screamed,
Whereupon Charlie stood up
Very confused ,Patsy are you
Here, Oh no he shouted!
Patsy opened the bathroom door
To see the three of us grinning,
Just a little mistake she said
But don’t dare say to anyone a word!
Hear no evil,
See no evil,
And we were to say no evil!
