Shopping
My heart is filled with horror as I hear that word again
"I'm home love" (she's just been shopping) and I've picked up a BARGAIN,
Now this may be a pack of tight's, a pound now thats not dear,
But I know she'll never wear them cause the are to bloody sheer.
Home she comes with nappies, buy two get one free,
Now this IS a real bargain as we have no family.

I'm not alone I'm sure of it us men we know the score,
We've all seen their eyes light up as they walk into the store.
"I really love this jacket, a snip she says" so true,
"Ah, but it would be so much nicer in a different shade of blue!"
So she picks one £10 pounds dearer and a red one just in case,
And then she starts to growl at you for that look youv'e on your face.

What is it with this species that we love and cherish dear,
So often very sensible, but not when shops are near.
They run a home hold a job, do everything so well,
But when it comes to shopping their the creatures straight from hell.
How often have we seen it after hours of trudging round,
She walks back to the first shop cause it's cheaper by a pound.

Now we've been to Marks ans Spencers and we've been to BHS,
We've been to all the others and I like them even less.
My poor wee feet are throbbing and my backs about to break,
A trollys got my ankle and my heads began to ache.
"A cup of tea" the missus says, to me that sounds just great,
"And then we'll head to Sprucefield" just because its open late.

"Homeward bound at last" I say but alas I speak too soon,
Back to Abbeycentre and we'd been this afternoon.
When we'd been there she'd seen this skirt she said she'd get next week,
You mention this and the look you get like a slap accross the cheek.
In the car and heading home the shoppings in the boot,
on the seats and on the roof and all around your foot.

In the door we're home at last my slippers on my feet,
The telly's on a cup of tea now this is hard to beat.
It's Friday night my weeks work done and I've just got my pay,
It won't last long cause as you know tomorrows SATURDAY.
The suns to shine weathermen say tomorrow will be fine
I think I'll ring and see the boss about some overtime.

LMAO that was histarical! Surely we are not THAT bad!!

But, then again, I could name a few things that you GUYS are just as senselessly crazy about...Can we say...sports?

I do not know whether I was then a man dreaming I was a butterfly, or whether I am now a butterfly dreaming I am a man.
