And I'm sure this has no particularly local references.
SUPERSTITION
Grahame Watt
I'm not superstitious by nature
And I'd never do things by half;
I always walk under a ladder,
And on Friday the thirteenth I laugh.
I've no time for black cats and gypsies;
I'm not ruled by omens and fear.
As I told you, I'm not superstitious;
Don't listen to warnings I hear.
There's only one thing I insist on,
When having a bath Sat'day night;
I always sit at the 'tap end',
But it's not superstition or spite.
You might think it's odd that I sit there;
You might even think I'm a mug.
But the reason I sit at the tap end
Is because we can't find the damn plug!
Cheers, Rowan
