that hospital that library

it's a ward of peace,

three cuts on the abdomen,

3 pound fifty for the tv,

nurses tested you round the clock,

you got full love service,

for free,

god bless the en aitch mess,

you sure brush up good,

when the spotlight gives you a rest

___________________________



started today in the library,

took the reigns of the mystery,

issue,

discharge,

pay the fine,

or defer it to next time,

relax its not a crime,

plenty tea breaks,

were offered me,

shuffling books in a public gallery

is there a bladdy computer free?,

chill round the corner and wait you'll see,

kids got their story books,

old arabs and afros mumbling politics,

on the newspaper table,

I got to get the code right,

colours and alphabets,

shelve it smile,

can I volunteer to help the grannies?,

sure saffa babe,

just take this leaflet.

we played scrabble,

Zit was used twice,

and seth lost because

he didn't know

axe can be ax



I'll rig it so I win

The pig will race against the duck.



Goodnight
