El Toopay

 

 


It started with a bald spot.

About as big as half a crown.

Then it got much bigger.

And worked it's way around.


Everytime I had a bath.

Or washed my hair at night ( neet)

I 'd look down onto the floor

There would be hair all round my feet.


Falling out in chunks it was.

Bald as a coot on top.

And then I tried a toupe.

It looked just like a mop.


I said I would'nt wear it.

The wife said it looked all right

I said that folk would laugh at me

Because it looked a sight.


She got her way, I wore it.

It was stuck on with tape and pinned.

But everybody laughed at me.

It blew off in the bloody wind
