Uncle Eddie's Plight!


We had to hire a digger, oh goodness gracious me!
He was up and down the garden; it was as messy as could be!
We left the man a blank cheque, the deposit don't ya know!
Cos if it breaks or we steal it, well, the money, it will go!

Up the hill and down again, the sweat was pouring off his face!
Yes, I have to say it…He really fell from grace!
As he worked away, sweating as he went…
He said that digger was great! It was really Heaven sent!

“I couldn't have done it without it!” Uncle Eddie said to me!
“Cos this garden is a mess!” Oh goodness gracious me!
Now as he worked away, it made a nasty sound,
Then the bloody wheel fell off, and landed on the ground!

Uncle Eddie went bananas, and pulled at his hair quite mad!
Raging that the digger…Was really oh, so bad!
“Never mind!” He shouted, “I will sort it out real fast!”
He put the wheel back on! And the digger shot off fast!

“We will lose the deposit!” Uncle Eddie said to me!
“Cos this digger's a pile of rubbish! As old as old could be!”
We all went into a panic, cos blimey what could we do?
But Uncle Eddie sorted it, oh what a fine to-do!

We all then relaxed a bit, and as we held our tea in a cup…
Loads of smoke came out, and the bloody thing blew up!
So he took it back to the shop, and told the man a wopper!!
“Pal, you should check your goods! Or I'll go and tell a copper!”

He Did It!

And We Got Our Money Back!
