The Hobbyist

Silly hobbies: Song of Lady Vic

Dreary was the toolmaker's son
And when his daddy would visit he'd come along
When they gathered 'round and started talkin'
That's when Dreary would take me walkin'
Out through the back yard we'd go walkin'
Then he'd look into my eyes
Lord knows, to my surprise
The only one who could ever reach me
Was the son of the toolmaker
The only boy who could ever teach me
Was the son of the toolmaker
Yes, he was, he was, ooh, yes, he was
Being good isn't always easy
No matter how hard I try
When he started sweet-talkin' to me
He'd come and tell me "Everything is alright"
He'd kiss and tell me "Everything is alright"
Can I get away again tonight?
The only one who could ever reach me
Was the son of the toolmaker
The only boy who could ever teach me
Was the son of a toolmaker
Yes, he was, he was, ooh, Lord knows, he was (yes, he was)

Weird mis-shapes, cost a fortune, kept long after their use by date - politics again?

dearieme - ha ha, very good. What would she'd think of it though?

DJ - ha ha - and don't forget the smell, that should come in somewhere.
