Pants!

An oldie but still quite amusing. You don't have pants in America - well obviously you have pants or guzzies, undercrackers etc. but not in the same context. Soggy sandwiches are pants as are Gameshows on daytime TV,
really great stuff you order that's out of stock, thin soup (that's out of stock too!) and cough syrup. OK you get the idea. This is a poem to recite when life is pants. Comic verse from Ian



PANTS!

The fluff that gathers in your navel
Scratchy corners on a shirt label
Great times that always end too soon
Farty smells in the bathroom


THEY’RE PANTS

Sand and grit in mayonnaise
A nasty zit that stays and stays
Too little relish on your burger
The bank can’t stretch your credit further


IT’S PANTS

Dropping gravy down your tie
Burning your tongue on apple pie
Beer that’s weak and flat and bland
A concert where you have to stand,


ALL PANTS

Traffic jams in all big cities
Girls who only have small hands ( ! )

THAT'S PANTS


When life falls short of expectations
And each day brings you new frustrations,


JUST SAY ITS PANTS.

Link to a story of hoe political correctness made Chistmas pants for som kids in Britain.

I have family and friends in England. I just realized when they visit, they haven't a clue what I am saying.

Here we say "panting."
