Not 21 Again?!

orchidee



Not 21 again?!

Yep, afraid so - Boo hoo!

21 - how many times over?

Ohh, about 5 million

Well, I'm very old ya know

My middle name is 'Fossil'

 

Ya want to send me presents? Sure!

Just send me a pork pie

What - ya got one left over in ya pantry

From about 1953?

And send me a bottle of sherry too

Or whisky, or any tipple

Just don't forget to add water to it!

 

Or ya could send Fido a bone instead

Or some dog biscuits

Cos he's barking

Wondering why I'm getting all the presents

And he's got none?

 

Send him a bone

But not a saucy poem

Or I'll never hear the end of his barking

He has to bark though

He says it's the only way to keep me sane

And keep me from swooning

Or I might be tempted

To read all those hot poems!

 

Ya know he reads them all for me first, don't you?

I know - a dog that can read!

Well, I am in Cuckoo Land

99% of the time

 

Oh, barmy days

Maybe balmy ones too

God willing, I'll stick around for ages more

Stay around like a bad....

Bad smell - you add?

Noooo - Bad penny!

 

I know it could be torture for ya

Me and my corny jokes

I'll waffle on for hours with 'em

Ya loves it really -  I knows!!

 

It's goodbye from me...

And 'Woof' from Fido!

He chose today's clip!
