She stares into the mirror
Speaks the words that all men fear,
'Does my bum look big in this?'
He smiles, 'Of course not, dear.'
His mother cooked a birthday meal,
The beef was hard to chew,
Then at the door, a kiss goodbye,
'Delicious meal, thank you.'
Each Christmas Eve, all parents warn
Their kids to stop the noise
'Cos Santa Claus is watching you
And won't bring any toys.'
When Dad went in the old folks' home
Mum unpacked the case in his room
Then patted his hand as she helped him to bed
'Don't worry, you'll be back home soon.'
Ouch!
