Sketchbook Re-discovered

(Sung to the Tune 'Lollipop' by Mika)

I was looking on the shelf one day

For some skirts I had cut in May

When to my great surprise

A shirt appeared before my eyes!

Cut too much and forget to label and you're gonna miss the size

Cut too much and forget to label and you're gonna miss the size

OH YES

OH YES

Then you're gonna kick your self

OH YES

OH YES

Then you're gonna kick your self

Tiny seams I will have to sew

To give Son his room to grow

Longer cuffs and high neck band

Will add pomp to the collar stand

Big seams built in save the day Thank you O+S

Big seams built in save the day Thank you O+s

OH YES

OH YES

Or I 'd have been in the pooh

OH YES

OH YES

Or I'd have been in the pooh

Feeling tired I should really stop

Wanna do the collar before I drop

Collar down neat,collar up bold

The yellow goes under the fold

Always check before you sew or you're gonna stuff it up

Always check before you sew or you're gonna stuff it up 

OH YES

OH YES

The collar's on the wrong way round

OH YES

OH YES

The collars on the wrong way round

Well I sat down and had a big cry!

Then my Son came walking by

'Hey Mum,there's is no need to sob,

that collar is just the job' 

The collar can stay,he likes the look,Thank God for groovy sons

The collar can stay,he likes the look,Thank God for groovy sons

OH YES

OH YES

Cause it can stay that way

OH YES

OH YES

He likes it just that way

OH YES

OH YES

I'm not changing it any way!

Apologies to Mika
