“EXCUSES”
T’WAS A RAINY AULD DAY
WITH THE WIND ACTING UP
T’WAS GOOD FOR NOTHING
EXCEPT TAKING A SUP
NO LIGHT IN THE SKY
JUST THAT COLD LOOKING GREY
SURE, YOU COULDN’T CUT TURF
OR BRING IN THE HAY
THE GOLF COURSE TOO SOGGY
AND WHO WOULD BOTHER PLAYING TENNIS
“SURE, T’IS A GREAT AULD DAY LADS”
“TO KNOCK DOWN A FEW GUINESS”
“BUT WHAT ABOUT EXERCISE”
‘CAUSE THAT STUFF FILLSYOU UP”
“WE’LL WORRY ABOUT THAT LATER’
WHEN THE WEATHER LETS UP
