Dead As a Dodo

Put my key in the ignition – the car battery was flat
Dead as a blooming Dodo … now what do you think of that

Had promised mum I’d take her to the church fete
I had to get a wriggle on, I can stand being late

I walked as quickly as I could – it’s really not too far
Arrived just a few minute late – mum thinks that I’m a star

We drank a lovely cup of tea and ate a biscuit or two
Rang hubby about my car – oh boy I felt so blue

Went to the local garage and Dave the owner came straight round
Got the car started straight away – he’s a gem to have around

Kept the engine running, now the battery is topped right up
Need to drive more regularly – not leave it until it’s kaput!
