Go away atrocious one!<\/p>\n
Can’t you see I’m on the run<\/p>\n
Why do you visit me at this ungodly hour<\/p>\n
Your presence brings me annoyance and leaves the taste in my mouth sour<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Just before i open the door<\/p>\n
I pray the ringing bell is nothing more<\/p>\n
Then a mistake on my behalf<\/p>\n
So that the week that follows won’t be rough<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
But when the door opens I am left disappointed<\/p>\n
Because it seems that I have been appointed<\/p>\n
Your host for seven days<\/p>\n
And only then will you go away<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I am left to prepare endless supplies of clothes and food<\/p>\n
When it’s holidays Your stay is never good<\/p>\n
As this is the time for me to go away and rest<\/p>\n
Come when I’m busy, then\u00a0 your stay gives me freedom so it works out best<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
You make me moody and feeling like I need to cry<\/p>\n
For reasons no one knows why<\/p>\n
And you wake me in the middle of the night<\/p>\n
And I always have to make sure that your bedding is just right<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Now there’s nothing that can be changed<\/p>\n
So I heave a sigh and have a room arranged<\/p>\n
As The Red Flag Lady is here to stay with me<\/p>\n
I know the worst is going to be days one, two and three<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
