James…My ‘Ickle Mate!


I have him up the wall you know!
In and out of his shop!
‘Cor blimey, Cath!' he shouts,
‘Don't you ever stop?'

Well I don't know why he complains,
I mean, when all is said and done!
I'm the only one who buys them sheets!
Cos every time he looks…they've gone!

You see, he's got a shop called; ‘Scribbles,'
And it's as cute as it can be!
In fact, I have to say it…
It's me favourite place to be!

But he gives me a smashing discount!
Yep, James really is a star…
And yes, I'm gona say it!  
That lad's gona go real far!!

Cos the bus stop is right by him!
And it will take him anywhere!
That is of course, as long as…
He pay's the ruddy fare!

He's got a cutie face you know!  
But shhh, don't let on I said!
Cos I really, really think-
I'm gona end up dead!

He gives this little cheeky grin,
And he's got a twinkle in his eye,
And don't let on, but you know what?
He's got that hair stuff they call dye!

It hides the flecks of grey,
Well, that's what they all tell me,
But then again, who am I to say,
Cos I use that it too you see!

Anyway, where was I?
Oh yes, about my little mate,
James, you are a little gem!
Now how's about a date?

Cos I need to make appointments,
And stand in line in your shop!
Cos you're so very popular,
But James, this has to stop!

Cos am not queuing up no more,
Am as fed up as can be!
I've gota get Back home!  
Or I'll never get me tea!

So then, we'll make the date…
Hmm, I think a Monday may be best?
Cos all the people are in the post office;
So you've time to spare for the pest!

Now then James, were was I?
Oh yes, I need an A4 sheet or two!
Well usually it's a few hundred!  
But for now, just one will do!

And remember what I said now!
Them A5 and A4 sheets did great!
Cos they sorted out me manuscript!
And I got meself a smashing mate!

Now this is in me manuscript,
Oh blimey, yep, it is!
One thing to say about this poet here,
She really does the biz!

You see, cos James has got a stationery thing!
And he's got these bits and bob's!
And it's costing me a ruddy fortune!
Yikes, I think I need two jobs!

Now smile, James!!  It's all good!

(Well, he's always smiling)!

Aint ya kid!!!
