The Mother-in-Law

Back Home Up Next

This'll give you a jolt,

Because I'm, not the dolt,

You've often made me to seem.

I've invested my loot,

Gained good interest to boot,

And I’ve bought a new washing machine!

It was plumbed in today.

I said 'hip hip hooray!'

And piled in the bits, with my undies.

Oh! What a lark! It works in the dark,

And doesn't charge double, on Sundays!

 

I'm pleased ,through to the bones

That I can get rid of those stones,

That I used to bash my clothes, by the river.

Don't think that I'm rude,

But I had to wash in the nude,

And Bai Gum! It did make me shiver!

 

I've searched out the rest,

That I'm going to invest,

At a very high rate of return.

And it won't be too long,

Before I burst into song,

As I'll have enough money to burn!
