Drove into Church this morn
To set up for the hymns;
And their awaiting at the door
A swan waiting to get in.
It joined the congregation
But wouldn’t sing the song,
It must have been a mute you see,
Or might have got it wrong.
It came down to the choir
To listen to the row;
But didn’t like it very much
So left without a bow.
The service neared completion
The plate was passed around,
The swan donated nothing
So it didn’t hang around!
