I once saw a cloud floating by in the sky
It looked just like my Aunty Glad
But we haven’t seen Aunty Glad in a while
Not since she moved in with my dad

I pointed the cloud out to Mummy who screamed
and growled before mopping her brow
“If that was your mean Aunty Gladys
it would be fat in the shape of a cow!”
