Why Me

So, There I am Browsing in a book store No one around but me for a mile or more. Suddenly I feel someone's heavy breath On the back of my neck Looking over my shoulder to see what I'm looking at What the heck!. Happened to me a week or two ago No one around Then suddenly a man appears from nowhere And bends down inf ront of me With his big fat bum His trousers hanging low Oh no!. I was just about to kick his but But the shop assistant shook her head No! That came as a blow What a cheeky man. I've been banged into sat on spat on Coughed and sneezed And a few other things You wouldn't believe. Sat on a bench in town one sunny day And out of nowhere An old .......... Came my way Hitting me with her shopping bags around the heard Never said a word I could have been dead. ''Thank you I shouted I was waiting all day to be left battered and bruised. If had been me I would have been accused Of being a thug And she would have got a great big hug Guess I'm just a mug. I've been poked in the eye with a brolly Run over by a bakers trolly Push chairs banged into my knees One dat a bird pooped on my head From a tree Why does it always happen to me Haaaaaa sigh.
