I Love My Bed My children they look cute In all the pictures on my shelf I didn't need much help Just brought them up myself I didn't palm them off So I could have an easy life I didn't even care If they caused me lots of strife I chose to fill my house up With all their little bits And when they all got big I gladly suffered all their shit Yes all my kids are cute And their love will never fade 'Cos I made my bed and laid in it With all the kids I'd made |

Time for bed little one. Another day has been and gone So now it's time to go to bed, Time to rest your weary head. Here's your teddy, hold him tight I hope you sleep right through the night! 'Jesus Christ', thank fudge for that! Sometimes I wish I had a cat Instead. They're less demanding. Whilst they might lack understanding They don't need their nappies changed. They don't ask "why?" 'til I'm deranged. Of course, I don't mean it, life is good! It's just a bit tiring, this 'parenthood'. |

Little one, close your eyes. Dream of spiders, slugs and flies. Don't feel the tickle on your skin As the bedbugs burrow in. |

The same, slightly modified. Very much a work in progress: Little one, close your eyes. Dream of spiders, slugs and flies. Don't feel the tickle on your skin As the bedbugs burrow in. Be quiet now, don't make a sound The shadow things are all around. Now, sleep until the morning light Or else they'll keep you in the night. |

Legostan...don't worry, I know how it is. I mean...for safety reasons and peace of mind...I totally child-proofed my house...and they still get in!! |

I agree Nydas. Iceman, that poem is brilliant. I've read it a few times now and still it feels fresh and punchy. |
