The Umbrella


A useless piece of paraphernalia Is definitely the umbrella It only keeps us dry from the neck up Not too brilliant there fella I suppose there are people out there Think it's the cat's meow Hop skip and a jump down life's lanes Doesn't look too highbrow Must be more common in rainy regions Closer to the equater Parts of the world rains are common Umbellas were created
