village verse
Ma And Mrs Norman
My Ma and Mrs Norman
They never had a conversation
Just interjected the odd aye
Patiently waiting
Until by and by
A gap would occur
And the other would start
To talk and
A swapping of parts
Would amicably take place
And in this way
In single sided converse
Each would have their say
They were the best of friends
But to me it seemed absurd
That they both spoke in turn
But neither of them really heard
My Ma and Mrs Norman
They never had a conversation
Just interjected the odd aye
Patiently waiting
Until by and by
A gap would occur
And the other would start
To talk and
A swapping of parts
Would amicably take place
And in this way
In single sided converse
Each would have their say
They were the best of friends
But to me it seemed absurd
That they both spoke in turn
But neither of them really heard
My Ma and Mrs Norman
