My legs are getting hairy,
My waist, it is quite fat.
My eyebrows are most scary,
I need some help for that.
My hair is long and greying.
My nails a real disgrace.
When we are free of Covid.
I’ll get right upon the case.
The wine rack, it is empty.
The loo rolls are all gone.
We’ve had enough of lockdown.
To last our whole life long.
We haven’t seen the grandkids,
For many a long day.
We need to really hug them.
Then take them out to play.
So please, dear Boris.
Do you think, we pensioners could be free?
We’ll keep our distance, wear our masks and
Then go home for tea!
