Problem Plays

Hamlet's took up heroin
Macbeth props up the bar
Barry and his brothers penned a tune for them
then Steps went forth to make a facsimile
These days are like problem plays
No fixed abode
just fixed-term agreements
and tender insults wrapped in pity
Leafing through the history book
I'm puzzled by the smudges and the stains
A romantic tatty old box
with neurological prompts from a former age
How will it go down in 40 years time
in a 3-bed semi with the grandkids round?
When your mind's intact, but your body’s failing
and they don't make the parts anymore
But all is well that ends well
All is well that ends well
Grandma says to cheer up, 'cause it might never happen
Grandma says to cheer up, 'cause it might never happen
Grandma says to cheer up, 'cause it might never happen
Grandma says to cheer up, 'cause it might never happen
