Lumberjacks
[This little note is a word to the Woke…
(that’s people who can’t take a joke).
I hereby point out to avoid criminality
Murphy and Pat are of no known nationality…]
***
Patrick and Murphy had little to do
They feared their financial position
While looking for jobs they heard there were a few
At the forestry commission
Working outdoors was what they both desired
They hopped on the very next bus
Murphy said look there’s Tree Fellers required
But Pat said… there’s just two of us
***
[Based on a joke first published as a cave painting!]
