To Sam on your move to Canning Town
filed in Congratulations on Nov.01, 2008
Your own home, congratulations!
Somewhere to entertain all your relations
We’re so excited now you’re able
To provide us dinner at your own table
With your own vacuum cleaner to keep the house clean
Washing in your own washing machine
Filling your cupboards with all your own food
Doing your shopping with savings accrued
No longer dependent on old mum and dad
You have your own life, and we are so glad
That you won’t need us to help you move
You’ll surely really want to prove
That you’ll no longer need our money
Oh, how our lives will be so sunny!
We won’t have to bring you up supplies
Now we’re starting to tell lies!
So we’ll stop here, and simply say
Sam, we hope that your moving day
Really will be the start
Of a very wonderful part
Of your life, have a fabulous time
And hope you like our little rhyme!!
