From the Rafters

Time to put our clocks back Means we lose an hours daylight So at 4 pm the sun goes down As daytime turns into our night Springing forward or falling back Whose crazy idea was it to do that In spring we lose an hours sleep In fall an hour’s sleep we keep The disadvantages of this Means precious daylight hours are missed On the dot of half past four The sky goes dark, daylight no more On rising it is still pitch black Oh please do send our daytime back Till then I have no other choice Must hibernate till spring As daylight returns oh how I rejoice and from the rafters I sing...
