 Title:
						The Episode on Tarbuck Road
 
 
 I saw them chase you down the streetFifteen female flying feet
 five ran straight and two ran bent
 and one had had an accident.
 They hurled their gloves and bags and hats
 and hollered out like night-time cats
 I sat and watched you, quite astounded
 knowing not why you were hounded.
 What had you done to raise their hackles?
 I`d not seen better rugby tackles
 and then I guessed it was a hobby
 As they all shouted “Lets get Robby”.
 They ripped your clothes off, made you  yelp
 but no one offered any help
 so then I went to my front door
 and hauled you in from off the floor.
 At this time I blushed, quite red
 and so, to ease my mind, you said
 “Don`t worry queen, not in the least,
 I`ll do no harm `cos I’m a priest”...
 I sponged your face and brushed your hair
 and found you some more clothes to wear.
 I must admit you looked quite pert
 when you put on my miniskirt
 and after that, well even better
 when you adorned my low-cut sweater.
 Later on you forth did `sally`
 to your house, through our back alley,
 everyone was so impressed
 to see how chicly you were dressed,
 The thing that caused your hair to bristle
 was hearing all the fellers whistle.
 You faded off into the blue
 that was the last I saw of you
 and now my life is dull and bare
 I havn`t got a stitch to wear.
 If ever you are round one day
 don’t hesitate to call my way
 and I’d be grateful Robby dear
 if you would, please, return my gear!
 P.S.  I`m not so dense from ear to earas it would seemingly appear
 but if it’s true you are `monastic`
 then I’ll confess” Boy, you’re fantastic!”
