My mother's heart and soul Have gone halfway up the pole My father's on the dole This is taking its toll My friend Bert is much too old And his dog's beyond control Though it sometimes seems they're droll It's a nuisance on the whole I'm profoundly in love with Pandora My poem has an intellectual theme The tenderness with which I adore her Goes all bouncy in my dreams Yesterday my chin was clear Now a new spot has appeared Barry Kent had cost me dear Till my Grandma interfered The BBC know I'm sincere In making writing my career Wish my mum would come back here Lots of ups and downs this year I'm profoundly in love with Pandora She's got knee-socks and treacle-coloured hair The tenderness with which I adore her Is something fine and rare But, my father's in a mess And there's a great deal of stress At our house and my major concern Is that things might return to normal So get rid of that creep And come back to sleep In our house we both miss you mum So hurry up and come back home My mother's heart and soul Have gone halfway up the pole Though it sometimes seems they're droll It's a nuisance on the whole Yesterday my chin was clear Now a new spot has appeared Profoundly in love with Pandora Wish my mum would come back here Lots of ups and downs this year I'm profoundly in love with Pandora Things aren't always what they seem The tenderness with which I adore her Is indeed a love supreme
