Singing in the rain...

GETTING WET

They’ve not got designated drivers

on the local buses yet

It could take all night to get home

if he stops to place a bet

It’s raining in the bus shelter

an me hairdo’s getting wet

And everyone is staring

at me plastic suffragette

Her makeup’s running down her placard

‘Vote for wimmin don’t forget’

She’s got a hooded sweatshirt

an it’s soaking blooming wet

I used to drive a Range Rover

an play the clarinet

But now the Chelsea tractors

are splashing me the gets

It’s raining in the bus shelter

an me hairdo’s getting wet

Sometimes I wish I’d never met her

in the flaming launderette

She’s not really me girlfriend

she just helps me walk me pets

She’s got a hooded sweatshirt

an it’s soaking blooming wet
