Queueing for busses
Even though not going far
Been queueing for busses
Ever since I sold the car.
I still can’t believe
What a bus passenger hears.
What have i been missing
For all of those years?
I sit there quietly
Occupying my place
Trying go maintain
An unmoving face.
I hear about adultery
Uninhibited sex
Heaven only knows
What I’ll hear next.
Delinquent children
Beaten up wives.
Don’t people these days
Lead such disjointed lives.
The best are young women
On their mobile phones.
They seem to think
They're in worlds of their own
Yet they all seem to speak
In a manner so loud
As if they are fighting
The noise from a crowd.
Admissions of guilt,
After fun filled nights,
Lurid descriptions
Of esoteric sights,
Three in a bed romps,
Translucent underwear,
Just some of the things heard
While quietly sitting there.
Sometimes I’ve travelled
miles further than I intended
Just to hear how
A good story ended
Queueing for busses
Even though not going far
Been queueing for busses
Ever since I sold the car.
I still can’t believe
What a bus passenger hears.
What have I been missing
For all of those years?
A bored nymphomaniac from Bude
Had so many boyfriends they queued
I once heard it said
She liked three in a bed
Which seems just a little bit rude
Three is just to many in a queen size bed
I just lay here watching as she snuggles him instead
Just don't understand it, I'm suppose to be her life
Feeling a little neglected, after all she is my wife
I thought nothing could be worse than having to eat kale
but I finally found it as she cuddles another male
So I'm going to tell her "This bed ain't made for three!"
but I guess there could be others, if you count the fleas

Regarding the alleged naughtiness of Lord Sewel, former Deputy Speaker of the House of Lords and Chair of the Privileges and Conduct Committee...
“Order, order!” he shouted “We’re all out of line”
“I’ll see to that” quoth the whore
“And if you’re a good boy we’ll do three in a bed,
You can snort off my ti**ies and more”
Oh silly old Sewel you poor addled old fool
So clearly misguided and randy
That the question of cash and the secretive flash
Were obscured in a cloud of nose candy
it was our thing
we love to swing
so we get together
in any kind of weather
and get it on
some say its wrong
its a feeling thats appealing
thinking it turns my head
THREE IN A BED
