And walked the streets in both my shoes
Buying things in ones and twos.
went to a Boots in a rush
Because I needed a toothbrush.
Then to the baker I did run
To get a sack of fresh cross-buns
And then to a store that was near there
To buy two fresh sets of underwear.
When I got back to my B and B
I was quite weary as all could see
And sat on my bed, thinking of all I'd done,
and took my shoes off, one by one.
First my left sock, then my right,
Fell on the floor. I turned out the light,
Puffed up the pillows at my head and lap
And fell asleep in a pleasant nap.
When I awoke it seemed more wise
To see, so I opened both my eyes
First one and then the other. Quick
(although the right one tends to stick).
Then I got up, and went to pee,
And went downstairs for a cup of tea.
Many's the day I actually spent much like this
In case you think I'm merely taking the piss.
