Tonight I’m running a creative writing workshop with Making Minds in Aberdare. We will be re-writing the lyrics of favourite songs. I thought I would share this song that I wrote a while back, it’s to the tune of Summertime but is in a thick Caaaardiff accent!!!
Suppertime
Suppertime, and the chippie is easy
Fish that’s fried is so easy to buy
Just 2 quid and your dinner is sorted
Jumbo sausage and a large Clark’s pie
It takes hours making something nutritious
Jamie’s right, you should always try
Five a day’s the best way, but the dishes
Get used up and they pile so high
It’s a drag making meals every evening
Break a nail peeling veg, I ask why
So much time is consumed, you’re left feeling
You’ve been fooled as the minutes just fly
Save your time and your sanity, darling
Keep your plates for when momma drops by
Saveloys and fried chicken are calling
Greasy chips and a large Clark’s pie
