Maid For The Ungrateful
She's thirty-three, single,
her Mom babysits her
five year old son.
She reassures herself it's
just two more hours,
then it's the blessed weekend.
Which means delicious sleep.
She has no nest egg,
she's just getting by.
There is one kind aging matron
who makes...

Butts For a Butt
Ned was grandma's billy goat,
The meanest goat in town;
Every time you crossed his path,
He'd try to butt you down!

A twisted lil' teen;
He always nagged that billy goat,...

Men dressed in top hats and tails
Ladies in designer dresses and fascinators,
Bookmakers standing by the rails
Taking bets singles or accumulators,

Tensions heightened becoming dramatic,
Punters drinking champagne...

Basking in sunshine in the coldest winter
With sneezes, chest congestion and much coughing

We're all ingredients in the humanity stew
The sad clowns
The prescription abusers
The chickens running around without their heads

The braces of teenage heart throbs
Bloody black and blues...

You’ve got to be young and fit
And every succeding...
