· Daddy’s coming home
At three o’clock, we ran across the park
Then up the Wigan Road, we children roamed
Past the houses and along the fields
Looking for our daddy coming home
Looking for our daddy coming home.
I was only two or three at most
We passed our church and saw the Pope in Rome
We climbed a fence and walked by fields of wheat
Looking for our daddy coming home
Looking for our daddy coming home.
From the distance came a tall thin man
A ladder on his shoulder, hair well combed
A bucket full of paints and all his tools
Look, Paul, is that daddy coming home?
Bernard, I think daddy’s coming home!
A look of shock, a smile, a cry, my loves!
He rushed towards us, happy and transformed
What about your mammy does she know?
Yes, yes, yes it’s daddy coming home
Yes, yes, yes, it’s daddy coming home.
Oh,Mammy had no idea of it at all
She thought we were just playing by the wall
Children were much bolder and more free
But Daddy went to Heaven after that
Mam was so depressed she killed the cat
Happy in the golden fields of joy
Happy with no money with few toys
Daddy never walked that road for long
I missed him so I cut off my own tongue
There’s always cake

What a great thing Food Banks are.You can meet people like yourself and if there are enough tins of baked beans you can ask someone round for tea.I expect if there’s no bread there will be cake
I hope there will be some PG tips tea.I hate foreign food even tea. and want real tea made in England and well brewed
Gosh even if you are rolling in money you can still trawl Charity Shops in Hampstead for cheap designer wear.The poor don’t need designer clothes.I mean, they don’t even know what they are, do they?And they are hardened to the cold.Why in my mother’s era they had no shoes and when you think about it. why does the government not ban shoes for people on benefits?
I think it’s wonderful of the people in Vietnam to make a hundred T shirts a day for 10 pence
I mean, it is a job all is said and done.I once worked as waitress and it is such fun during the vacation from Oxford.We are only there 24 weeks a year so I need to be occupied but only with my consent.My mother is descended from King Charles 2nd! He had lots of mistresses, such a naughty boy.Bring back the mistress but don’t marry her
