The Home Of Hell…! And The Lovell Lads!Yes it is you know…me home! It's really the house of hell! As soon as you open the door, You can really sorta tell! It got no wood round the bath, And there's holes all over the floor! And what a shock guess what! There aint no wood round the door! The door's only got one hinge, And there aint no bath, So if you're fellin' a little sad, Visit me and have a laugh! The window frames don't fit the windows, And they aint even against the wall, And every time the wind blows… You can hear the howling from the hall! I haven't got a fire; sheesh, And the room was as cold as ice, Couldn't get it warm at all, It wasn't very nice. Cos I didn't know how to work the heating, The ruddy thing wouldn't come on! So I reported it as a fault! Oh blimey, what had I done! Then one day the telly went off, And I had to fix the socket, But as I stood before the window, The wind blew at me like a rocket! The window frame aint against the wall, And the wind was howlin' through! No wonder I can't get the room warm! I didn't know what to do! So I left a message on the answer-phone, And told them of my plight, I said; ‘help, I need rescuing!' Cos I'm freezin' every flippin' night! The woods knackered on the skirtin' boards, The nails just won't stay in place, I really have to say it, This house is a flippin' discrace! Anyway, what was I sayin'? Oh, yes, about the house of hell! When anyone comes to visit me, They know where it is…they can tell! Cos it's the one that's got no windows, And the one that's fallin' apart! And there I'll be, every night, Tryin' to fix me broken heart! But the Lovell lads have sorted it! And everything's working fine! They fixed up this, and hammered that! And were here for a very long time! And now me windows are painted! I know why they howl in the wind at night! There's a metal thingy on the top of the glass; And it wakes me up with a fright! But I guess I can't complain! Cos you should see my place! And now it's no longer the house of hell! No more is it a disgrace! I've got flowers in me garden, And muck all over the floor; While the Lovell lads are working, Gawd, can I really take any more? Yep, I can, wana know why? Well of course, it has to be said! You can really tell what my home is; Cos I'm blushing a shade of red! Cos so proud am I of my little home! And all because the Lovell lads worked through; To put my place to rights! Cos there was so much for them to do! But do it you did you lot! And I take my hat off too! And offer my thanks in this booklet! Most especially for the Lovell lads; you! And yep, I know I joke a lot! But this I shall tell it true! The meaning in this poem today! Is by far a most serious; ‘thank you!' Now away you go, Have a read and a laugh! With this special selection; From this poet, Cath! And of course, I am joking! Because my place is gorgeous! Eat your heart out!!! They've worked as hard as they possibly could! So recognition especially for you lot! Poetry Ad-Free Upgrades Vote for this poem
