Me Boyfriend’s Comin’ Sparkin’

 

I been on me feet all day today

And now me dogs are barkin’

I should be goin’ to bed tonight

But me boyfriend’s comin’ sparkin’

I wrapped me hair in an oily towel

Just to give it body and shine

Stuck two old tea bags on me eyes,

An’ scoffed ‘alf a bottle of wine.

 

I soaked in a bath of rose petals

While I finished the rest of me wine,

Now the room looks a little bit ‘azey

From the neck down, I’m feelin’ just fine.

Now it’s me ‘ead , what’s doin’ the reelin’

An’ me feet, well I guess they’re somewhere

An’ me boyfriend’s comin’ sparkin’

But now -- I’m – too—pished--- to care …..

Hilarious ... I really love it !!!!

definitely a fun piece to read . I agree it reads like a song - didn't put me in mind of the Irish - more of the Appalachian mountain folk and one of their old songs. either way - just plain fun! nicely done.

I adore this, me smiling all the way! This reminds me of an old Irish song or tale. Thank you for bringing me back. "Stuck two old tea bags on me eyes, An' scoffed 'alf a bottle of wine."
