MY AUNTY GLADIOLA<\/span><\/b>
\n\u00a9Trev Teasdel Middlesbrough Feb 1982<\/span>
\n
<\/span>
\nChorus<\/span>
\nOh my Aunty Gladiola never played the Viola<\/span><\/i>
\nShe sang in a choir in the strangest attire.<\/span><\/i>
\nApparently saintly and prim<\/span><\/i>
\nWith a secret liking for sin.<\/span><\/i>
\n
<\/span>
\nAt school she was never in the teacher’s good books<\/span>
\nShe learnt the three ‘s’es always pushing her luck.<\/span>
\nAlways skiving, scrumping and screwing.<\/span>
\nThey said it would lead to her ruin.<\/span>
\n
<\/span>
\nOh my Aunty Gladiola bit the heads of live rabbits<\/span>
\nand had in addition lots of other bad habits.<\/span>
\nThey called her the angel from hell<\/span>
\nwith her Swastika’s, leathers and smell.<\/span>
\n
<\/span>
\nChorus.<\/span>
\n
<\/span>
\nOh my aunty Gladiola had a friend she called Lola<\/span>
\nwho came round everyday with another friend Faye.<\/span>
\nIt was rumoured they had it away.<\/span>
\nin a manner delightful and gay.<\/span>
\n
<\/span>
\nThe neighbours took exception to this activity<\/span>
\nThey called it an outrage, a crime and a pity.<\/span>
\nBut she just did what she always did.<\/span>
\nStuck up her fingers just like a kid.<\/span>
\n
<\/span>
\nInstrumental break<\/span>
\n
<\/span>
\nOne day they burst in and shaved her all over<\/span>
\nafter hearing what she did with a dog called Rover.<\/span>
\nThey battered and bruised her so bad.<\/span>
\nJust like a a dog that’s gone mad.<\/span>
\n
<\/span>
\nMy Aunty Gladiola she married a man<\/span>
\nwho was handsome and wealthy and wise with a tan<\/span>
\nbut after the first night, all night,<\/span>
\nhe was looking so white, alight.<\/span>
\n
<\/span>
\nMy aunty Gladiola, she put on some weight<\/span>
\nand invited the vicar round for some tea and some cake<\/span>
\nBut that wasn’t all that he got – oh no!<\/span>
\nWhen the dog in his collar got hot.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
