Oven Glove

OVEN GLOVE

I’m here to protect you again and again No more than a mitten no glove made of chain To keep your hands cool and protect from the flame And if that doesn't happen don't say I'm to blame

Were you to get clumsy and let me get wet I become fairly useless so please don't forget To keep me away from the damp washing-up That always surrounds you when you're cooking-up

Try not to set fire to my dainty design When all singed and flaking, I don't work that fine And please don't forget when the cooking is done The hook on the wall where I like to get hung

To watch over the kitchen, in nonchalant style Lend a hand when needed, every once in a while When toasting or roasting or baking in tins Your fingers reach out and my function begins

My role is quite simple and really not new Take the heat for a moment that’s all I must do An Oven Glove’s life may not suit everyone But I think a loo brush would much rather be one!
