TRADESMAN
Nothing works in our old place
it`s all a mess, this is the case
we have no lights with which to see
and I must say it vexes me.
My hoover doesn`t pick up dust
the washing machines beginning to rust
the sockets hang from off the wall
the iron does not work at all.
I said to my husband`please take stock`
`do you want us to have an electric shock?
The electric fire it burns no more
it`s no good buying at Curry`s store
for in our house things soon break down
and husband stands there with a frown
I`ve asked him time and again to risk it
at least the oven could he fix it
as long as I`m with this bright spark
I will always fumble in the dark
he says it`s all in bad condition
he should know…he`s an electrician.
