No More...









NO MORE...

No more tea for you, dear
No more frou-frou neither
We've all had enough Kodak moments
And Douglas needs a breather

So no more geese in the square
And them silly hats have got to go
Giggling at people who wear black
Won't win you friends, you know

No more stilettos in toenails
No beastly weather that brings on the gout
If you must rage about your collar
Try nouns and verbs; we'll help you out

No more splendid balls now
And no more water spittin'
The man from Nantucket has gone away
There'll be no more portrait-sittin'

So get in your boat and row
Off to seek therapy we'll go
It's time we get another hobby
Yes, I really think that wise
Let's all take up cricket
Or netting butterflies
