#47: All Bets Are On.
The book is open. What'll it be? The odds on favourite? Let me see... At the top it's the Bottle - 2 to 1. "Leave me alone". Close behind - a Carpet - 3 to 1. "You don't understand me". And 4 to 1 is "It's not fair". A couple of outside chances Double Carpet 33 to 1 with "Please may I". And another runner Making a mark it's Burlington Bertie 100 to 30 on "Excuse me please". And they're off. The child is born. The child is born. It learns to talk It learns to walk The phrases fly But which'll it be As 13 years pass by It's neck-a-neck For "You don't understand me" and "Please may I". "Please may I" is taking the lead. I can't believe it. "Please may I" is breaking away. Through the 12 year stretch Will she take it? But what's this? Coming from behind At the last minute "I hate you" from the back of the pack. And "I hate you" wins by a nose.
#12: A Pre-Emptive Apology To My Unborn Child
Sorry if you get my nose I know it's rather long. Sorry if all of my friends Now call you Qwerty Sorry if you get teased at school Because your last name is Niblock Sorry if your peers discover That Niblock is an anagram. Sorry that the letters make The two words lick and nob. Sorry if you get my memory As it is short and wanes with age.
(My friends say that I'm like a goldfish. I'll go upstairs for something, And when I get there... Long dangly poo.)
Sorry if you get my sense of humour I know it's slightly odd. Sorry if you get my ability with the Ladies. No-one deserves that. Sorry if you get my penis size, Especially if you're a girl. I hope we instill enough love and enough wonder To render these worries asunder.
