2013 Non-Golden Successes
IS THERE ROOM IN YOUR KIND HEART FOR ME?
I’m a bit of a mixture. There is no family tree.
OK I look different but I am what you see.
Although I’m not one with a long pedigree,
Is there room in your kind heart for me?
I was cute as a puppy and they all loved me lots
But puppies need training just like human tots
So to a “good home” I’m totally free.
Is there room in your kind heart for me?
The man in the pub thought I might be for him
But my lack of good manners made his love for me dim.
Banned to the shed and locked in with a key.
Is there room in your kind heart for me?
Then someone else wants me. I do all that I can.
I’m middle aged now and just right for my man.
I couldn’t believe it, just how could it be?
There was plenty of room in his kind heart for me.
Then Daddy got poorly and God called for him.
I‘m pretty old too now and my eyesight’s quite dim.
Who’ll want an oldie with an arthritic knee?
Is there room in your kind heart for one such as me?
