 once upon a time

THIS THAT AND THE OTHER
 
It was like this,
there was a little bit of this that and the other going on.
I told the guy  working for me about doing this  that, and the other,
but did he listen?
No! He couldn’t see what this that and the other is
Bit stupid if he didn’t understand what this, that and the other is..
 
Anyway it was like this. We, me and him that is.
We’re doing a job and I said to him, the stupid one
You need do a little bit of this that and the other.
Know  what he asked me in the cheekiest way?
What in heaven's name does  this that and the other mean?
Now I ask you? I had shown him this that and the other
And for the life of me he couldn’t understand.
Have to get rid of him. 
 
I'll find someone who knows all about this that and the other.
I know I’ll ring the dole.  Hello, can I help you sir?.
Ah ha I thought, he knows a little bit of this and that.
Yes you can. I need someone to help me at work.
Oh says he doing what ?Ach just a little bit of this that and the other

Of course sir. 
We've a lot of qualified people to help you do this that and the other
But  you have to understand
they might know about this and that, but not the other.
You may have to explain yourself,
show them what this that and the other is.
Okay. I know all about this that and the other I’ll show them
Then they’ll be qualified to do
                                      THIS THAT AND THE OTHER.
