Lads Were In the Cupboards

Lads were in the cupboards Lads were in the hall. Lads were in the closet. Some were playing ball. Lads were in the kitchen Eating up our food. Our pretty cousin brought them home And some were rather rude Grandpa came home early and made them all leave He took back his sandwiches he grabbed back grandma’s weave Grandpa yelled for Doris and asked her what was this? She was a cute little thing, so she got by with a kiss. Lads ran from the cupboards Lads ran from the hall Lads ran from the closet Some of them did fall. Lads put down our food And apologized for being rude. Grandpa saved the day, all full of fortitude.

Cool little story, I can almost see grandpa chasing the Lads away. Don't mess with Grandpa's food.
