Street Gossip

Listen to poem:

O' boy; have you all heard the street gossip today 
Mrs. Pringle at No. 9 is having a bad hair day

Mr. Ellis at No. 4 had a shave, as cut his chin
Danny at No. 21 threw his cat out in the bin

Her at No. 30, preggers yet not a man in tow
No. 11 the neighbours from hell really need to go

Postman is having an affair with her at No. 5
No darn wonder, our post is so late to arrive

Johnny at No. 37 has got himself a new motor
Him at No. 41 drains have got a funky odour

The knicker thief at No. 59 is kinda of weird
Her at No. 3 all her bloomers have disappeared 

Who am I, I’m not telling, you know how the street gossip
But I did hear No. 47 on passing, say morning trollop
