My dear old mum used to tell me <br /> | |||
My old mum | |||
“Son, every dog has its day.” <br /> | “Son, every dog has its day.” <br /> | ||
Now in dog years, I am | Now in dog years, I am 343 years old, <br /> | ||
but I still quietly sit on my mat <br /> | but I still quietly sit on my mat <br /> | ||
& wonder when it will come <br /> | & wonder when it will come <br /> | ||

You see, I have this sinking feeling <br /> | You see, I have this sinking feeling <br /> | ||
that it’s been and gone <br /> | that it’s been and gone —<br /> | ||
I wasn’t paying attention <br /> | |||
& I missed it <br /> | & I missed it. <br /> | ||
I put my head between my paws <br /> | I put my head between my paws <br /> | ||
& sleep a little more <br /> | & sleep a little more <br /> | ||
& dream of mum <br /> | & dream of dear old mum. <br /> | ||
“There’s time, son, there’s time.” <br /> | “There’s time, son, there’s time.” <br /> | ||
That's what she’d say <br /> | That's what she’d say <br /> | ||
and | and she’d ruffle between my ears <br /> | ||
And | And I’d dream the day away. | ||
