A Little More Conversation

“A little more conversation”, said the little

kid next to me,

All the boring school days ain’t satisfying

me,

A little more play and a little less work,

A little less bore and a little more fun,

Close your book and open the door and go

to play to give a roar, go play to give a

roar.

Elvis songs re-mastered

A Little Less Conversation

A little less conversation,

A bit more writing please.

All this conversation,

Ain’t my cup of tea.

A little less talking,

A bit more writing!

A little less fight,

And a little more spark.

Close your mouth,

And open your mind,

Satisfy me children,

Children satisfy me.

Come on children,

I’m tired of talking.

Grab your pens,

And let’s start working,

Come on, come on,

Come on, come on,

Come on, come on,

Don’t keep talking,

It won’t help you at all.

You better start working,

Coz’ I’ll be lurking.

In the shadow

Firing …… AN ARROW

A little less conversation,

A bit more writing please.

All this conversation,

Ain’t my cup of tea.

A little less talking,

A bit more writing.

A little less fight,

And a little more spark.

Close your mouth,

And open your mind,

Satisfy me children ….

CHILDREN SATISFY ME !!!!!

Amazing Grace

Amazing wolf, oh how fluffy the fur

That made me like an animal like this,

I once was thinking, in the hall of animals,

What could be my favourite animal?

When I found it out, perfect and like me,

A wolf, shining in my mind, waiting to be,

My chosen animal, a gift from God,

Amazing wolf, oh how fluffy the fur,

To make a collection of loot for me

Always on my Mind

Maybe I didn’t smell you

Quite as good as I should have

Maybe I should have covered my nose

Big things smell a lot!

I just never smelled you again!

You always smelled a lot!

You always smelled a lot!

Maybe I didn’t try

To smell that bad whiff!

And I guess I never told you,

That you smell 100%

I wish you have deodorant!

If you would just take a shower

I wish I never smelled it!

You were always on my mind,

You were always on my mind!

Tell me, tell me, the whiff has gone.

Give me, give me, just 2 pounds …

To buy deodorant!

Little things are not that smell,

I just never bothered,

To buy deodorant, or a girls type!

A Little More Conversation

A little more conversation, A little less

writing please

All this talking ain’t satisfying me

A little more talk, a little less writing

A little less work and a little more spark

Shut your mouth and open your heart and

baby satisfy me.

Satisfy me baby

Always on my Mind (Marsh mellow)

Maybe I didn’t eat you

Quite as good as I should have

Maybe I didn’t chew you

Quite as often as I could have

Little things I should have said and done

I just never took time

You were always on my mind

You were always on my mind

All those lovely, lovely times

And I guess I never told you

I’m so happy that you’re divine

If I make you feel second best

Marsh mellow, I’m sorry that I was blind

You were always on my mind

You were always on my mind

Tell me , tell me that your sweet taste

hasn’t died

Give me, give me one more chance

To keep you in my tummy

To keep you in my tummy

Blue car

It’s one for the bunny

Two for the snow

Three to get steady

Now go, boy go

But don’t you drive away in my blue car

You can do anything but lay off my blue

car.

We you can push me down

Step on my face

Jump on my teeth, all over the place

Do anything that you want to do

OH OH baby lay off my car

Don’t you drive with my car

You can do anything but lay off my car

You can smash my house, steal my jar,

drink my juice from an old dead goose

Do anything that you want to do.

Oh Oh baby, lay off of my car,

Don’t you drive in my blue car,

You can do anything, but lay off of my blue

car.

Amazing Lawnmower

Amazing lawnmower, how powerful the

engine

That solved all my grass problems

I once was deserted for choice

But that’s all over

When you’ve been their legacies

Shining, green as leaves

No most years to waste with you

When, in the making

Ages loving your big black handle

I will not lose you

The clumps of grass He saved us from

His outstanding beauty leaves me whole

Amazing lawnmower, how powerful the

engine

That solved all my grass problems

I once was deserted for choice

But that’s all over

The Teacher Rock

The teacher's threw a party in the

classrooms,

The teacher band was there and began to

wail,

The band were jumpin' and the pen began

to swing,

You should hear those papers moaning,

EVERYBODY WAS DANCING TO THE

TEACHER ROCK!

trombone

Elvis was the King

Verses flying out his mouth

Income of 24 million pounds

Prison for his dad

Really wanted a bike and rifle

Elvis was pretty poor

Embedded in his fans heart forever for his

musical talents

The Elvis poem

The Rock ‘n’ Roll Kind

Does the bell ring?

If it doesn’t, Can’t your see?

Its Elvis Presley

When he was small he didn’t have much

cash.

I don’t think he even had enough for

Beans n Mash.
