BLONDE, HAVE FUN!
(Inspired by title of Rod Stewart record, Blondes Have More Fun.)
So, single life has re-begun?
Come to me, blonde, and have some fun.
Let down your hair, untie that bun.
You have still got some looks to stun,
You weren’t made to live like a nun!
Life’s too short, how about it, hun?
The sky is blue, out’s come the sun,
The woes of this world let us shun.
Together to the beach let’s run
(Or to the sleepy hills round Clun*).
I’m letting off the starting gun,
Let’s not stop till the day is done.
BLONDE’S REPLY
I scarcely know how to reply:
What wit and charm you do apply!
You’re an imaginative guy,
Heartwarming to the likes of I,
Likes to make a girl smile, not cry.
Who I admit has caught my eye.
A lovely day out I would try
With you; I’d walk, run, swim – or fly!
Just one condition, by the by:
DON’T expect me with you to lie!
*Clun – England-Wales border town in Shropshire, one of the places portrayed in A E Housman’s ‘A Shropshire Lad’:
Clunton and Clunbury, Clungunford and CLUN,
Are the quietest places under the sun.
