Sales - Day After Christmas Contest

Awoke with a feeling of deflation The razzamatazz is over pressie’s given Then a thought arouses me with a smile Whilst the men watch the sport on this boxing day A few cans in reach We females can hit the sales with parking queues for a mile Like a rugby match the people snatch and run So much on offer, it’s all in the fun You don’t try it you buy it cos it’s less than half price A bargain is a bargain , wouldn’t usually look twice You go home laden with things you know you’ll return Was a bargain yet not quite what you yearn Wearily you slip off your shoes with a big yawn Food’s in the kitchen, help yourself, this maid is tooo worn Been a wonderful day, so different from Christmas Yet they both need each other to emphasise the past
