Rose Anderson
Rose Anderson There once was a lady from York Who went by the name of O’Rourke. She worked in a pub, Played darts at her club, And occasionally went for a walk. There was an old person from Cheadle Who mislaid his favourite needle. When he cried, “What a shame! I’m the one who’s to blame!” They replied, “Go and get some from Lidl.” I drove down to Tesco’s today And ... what was I going to say? Oh, yes: bought some cheese And some marrowfat peas, then went to the checkout to pay. I thought it was going to rain As I went out to clear the blocked drain. I tidied the shed Then I rang my son, Ted. Fish fingers for supper again. I cough and I cough and I cough; Drink some Lemsip and then I doze off; And sometimes I feel It’s a bore to be ill; Then I doze off and wake with a cough.
