When it comes to cleaning
I need extra motivation
The duster doesn't get me cheering
It makes me want intoxication
I hid the iron years ago
And got a tumble drier
I bin everything I could sew
I say it's lost am such a liar
The ring around the bath
Has become a right good friend
Always there if I need a laugh
Especially when am going round the bend
And round the bend I certainly go
When the oven needs cleaned out
How did I ever sink so low
That a cooker can make me shout
Dishes pile up by the sink
I detest doing the washing up
They are starting to smell I think
Even the plastic plates and cup
The plant pot in the corner
Where something was once planted
Has refused to grow at all
The defiance has made me demented
All the blooming laminate floors
That the hoover just can't manage
All the stains chips and scores
That's it I need some dramage

No problem. We are the only ones that feel that way, I am sure, relative to my household!
