Tango and Reality

Lookng at those 'OK' beauties
Kids balanced perfectly 
Upon her hips and knee

Looking beautiful
At 9am in the morning
Picking up her cappachino and croissants for free

Cut to reality
Tired stretch marks
No cocoa cream in sight

Grab the latest issue of 'THE SUN'
While the kids argue over Ben 10
And Sponge Bob with delight

Its 9am now
I have been dragged through a hedge
Yet the school run is yet to do

Beautiful tracksuit attires my body
No point in trying
When you are just too tired to do

While the 'OK' beauties
Sup their morning coffee
And take their welcome breaks

Somewhere in another reality world
I will be downing my can of Tango
Eating my toasted tea cakes
