Terry Flood Poet Lyric

The Jolly Man Unwisely - a Mini Parody

Parody of The Holly And The Ivy. I ran out of
steam after verse two, but I felt it still worked

                   *

The jolly man unwisely
for he was full grown
Of all the cheese that was in the fridge
Old Jolly wolfed it down

Then Mrs Clause said, ‘Santa
O how your breath does stink
If it’s a promise that you think you’re on
Then have another think’
