Come to our Nativity play
Raggy doll asleep on the hay
Itchy knickers, bogey-pickers,
I’ve got a bit to say.
O, I’m the star as you can tell
I’m the Angel Gabriel.
Silver wings and halo thing and
Glittery tights as well.
They two kings of orient are
Kevin jones and Dominic Barr.
Barry Bright has tonsilitis-
Sick in his father’s car.
See the shepherds watching their sheep.
Amber Cardy’s gone off to sleep.
She was snogging Nathaniel Hogg in a
Cupboard and he’s a creep!
Mary, Mary, good as can be
Thinks she’s always better than me
Till my candle burns her sandal
Quite accidentally.
Adam’s Herod, up on a chair
In his robe and underwear.
It’s so rude, he’s nearly NUDE
And I saw his pants, so there.
Mums and Grandmas sit in a row,
Toddlers want to be in the show,
Dads who are able to stand on a table to
Get it on video.
(to be sung to ‘We Three Kings’)
