DISILLUSION

"I know I told you on Saturday night

That we had a future that was really bright.

But then you were in that satin dress

And you looked a vision of loveliness.

I loved the way it swirled round your ankles.

But here's the thing that really rankles....

Now you've stripped off to your bra

And panties, I can see you are

So much sturdier than before,

When your pretty dress reached to the floor.

All my passion has evaporated.

It cannot be too firmly stated.

I somehow cannot take my eyes

Off those really enormous thighs!"

GREEN BUGGY

When the sun beats down and the legs are tired,

And there's pleasant scenery to be admired

What better seat can possibly be found

Than an old-fashioned buggy that's lying around?

Here's Malcolm, sitting at his ease

Enjoying a sweet, refreshing breeze.

And what better colour to complete the scene

Than a canopy of cooling green?
