Noo her drawers dinna guff bit they’re roosty

Noo wi twice wikkly Bingo, it’s doubled, by jingo

Caused a skier tae lowp fin it powkit his dowp
An he cleared the neist brae like a panther

Fin the traffic got slower an slower
In the quest for mair speed, found the wye tae succeed

A Glesga Art Lover stood still
Like a heron poised ower its kill
Bit his jynts they aa froze as he studied a pose
Till he luiked like a biro refill
