Bored and looking for something to do? We could play around to see the afternoon through, Pin a tail on the donkey is always so lame, Let’s instead go and create a new game, Winding up dogs so they bark to annoy, Go bully the weak little orphan boy, Chase pigeons and squash them flat with your foot, Catch a white cat and cover it with soot. Play knock up ginger on the old widow’s door, Pinch a few sweets from the newspaper store, Keep a watch out for the boys dressed in blue, Otherwise they will surely collar you. Ride in a wheelie bin down the steepest street, Playing with matches will turn up the heat, Slashing some tyres is a deflating event, The world is our playground; heavenly sent. — Philip Wood |
