[Chrissy]

I'm ready to sing you the blues

Any old time that you choose

If you can't really hack it

Think it's a woebegone racket

I suggest that you start on the booze

[megustaleer]

There once was a hole in my bucket,

Which emptied before I could chuck it

There once was a hole in my bucket,

Which emptied before I could chuck it

When I went to the toilet

It really did spoil it

Who thought his life was real poxy

His name was so silly
He preferred to be called Willy

Who thought his life was real poxy

His name was so silly
He preferred to be called Willy

But made no difference at his autopsy

 

'Twas a blustery day in Great Snoring

'Twas a blustery day in Great Snoring,

And wet! It really was pouring.

'Twas a blustery day in Great Snoring,

And wet! It really was pouring.

The hole in the roof

[Raven]

'Twas a blustery day in Great Snoring,
And wet! It really was pouring.
The hole in the roof
Led to a wet poof

And wet! It really was pouring.
The hole in the roof
Led to a wet poof

At least no-one thought it was boring.
