WHEN MUMMY COMES HOME

My mamma is a qualified teacher,
Instilling discipline and good morals into students,
Always shouting good words like a preacher,
Giving knowledge to all including presidents,
When mummy comes home she’ll beat the mediocrity out of me.

My mamma is a qualified doctor,
Treating patients and giving injection,
Always at service and alert as a waiter,
Her main bit revolves around digestion,
When mummy comes home she’ll kick the virus out of me.

My mamma is a qualified engineer,
Machinery arrangement is all her ability,
She is a genius who never rely on questionnaire,
On matters industrial productivity,
When mummy comes home she’ll teach me how to make a toy car.

My mamma is a talented shopkeeper,
Selling milk expensively than ever,
While papa is a veteran gatekeeper,
Getting a bob from him is a great favor,
When mummy comes home she’ll bring me slices of bread.



My mamma is a peasant farmer,
Growing onions on our little piece of land,
All the same she’s hopeful to be a comer,
With plenty produce with which she can lend,
When mummy comes home she’ll bring nothing but smiles.
