Wanted: Nanny with Switchblade
We care not tuppence if you wax your pubes,
Still not a farthing if you lance your warts;
Your brolly armed must come when in the tubes
To hack each penguin sticking out its shorts;
No floating on a cloud near Smoggy Town;
No spooning sucrose in a toy teacup;
No laughing boobs on ceilings upside down;
No sliding ass on railings down or up;
Nor yet a "su-per-ca-li-fra-gil-is-
tic-ex-pi-a-li-do-cious" ever sing,
Or backwards "do-cious-a-li-ex-pi-lis-
tic-fra-gil-ca-li-rep-us" ever wing;
And with us children bonded to the rich,
Pitch Mummy's credit cards enclosed with "***CENSORED***."
