greenlands Posted January 14, 2021 Report Share Posted January 14, 2021 The wonderful Pam Ayres...now 73 years old and penned her latest ode ~ to coronavirus... I'm normally a social girlI love to meet my matesBut lately with the virus hereWe can't go out the gatesYou see, we are the 'oldies' nowWe need to stay insideIf they haven't seen us for a whileThey'll think we've upped and diedThey'll never know the things we didBefore we got this oldThere wasn't any FacebookSo not everything was toldWe may seem sweet old ladiesWho would never be uncouthBut we grew up in the 60s -If you only knew the truth!There was sex and drugs and rock 'n rollThe pill and miniskirtsWe smoked, we drank, we partiedAnd were quite outrageous flirtsThen we settled down, got marriedAnd turned into someone's mum,Somebody's wife, then nana,Who on earth did we become?We didn't mind the change of paceBecause our lives were fullBut to bury us before we're deadIs like a red rag to a bull!So here you find me stuck insideFor four weeks, maybe moreI finally found myself againThen I had to close the door!It didn’t really bother meI'd while away the hourI'd bake for all the familyBut I've got no flaming flour!Now Netflix is just wonderfulI like a gutsy thrillerI'm swooning over IdrisOr some random sexy killerAt least I've got a stash of boozeFor when I'm being idleThere's wine and whiskey, even ginIf I'm feeling suicidal!So let's all drink to lockdownTo recovery and healthAnd hope this awful virusDoesn't decimate our wealthWe'll all get through the crisisAnd be back to join our matesJust hoping I'm not far too wideTo fit through the flaming gates!
