Making Life More Difficult

orchidee

Making life more difficult

Than it already is?!

Or 'A tale of some unfortunate events'

 

I'm the guy, don't ya know

Who got Russian Roulette mixed up

Ya wouldn't want to play it with me

 I thought ya only had to leave ONE chamber empty

Doh and double Doh!!

 

And I tried to carry some water

From one place to another

It took me 3 hours

I didn't realise I was using a sieve!

 

I'm in this place - I'll never get out

If there's a fire

Cos there's only one door, a Fire Door

And it says , 'This door must be kept closed at all times'

I'll have to jump out of a window

Though I'm 20 floors up! lol.

 

I'm the guy who will cheer ya up

I'll say things to ya, like:

'Ohh, don't be gloomy

If today's bad, tomorrow could be worse'

And

'Don't worry; if one door closes

Another one will slam in ya face'

And

'If at first ya don't succeed - give up

No point digging yourself into a bigger hole!'

And

'Cheer up, there's only 4 and half months

To a certain season, that I can't mention until December

When ya can buy things ya neither need nor want

It's Ch........'!

 

Fido says to me - 'You gloom and doom merchant, you

You eternal pessimist

Shut up, and get me my dinner

And feed me first, as you always do

KP can wait!'

Heehee.
