Get Your Foxy Off

Christmas ads are in full flow 
snow is falling all around 
Scenes of happy families 
in cosy homes can be found   

Then for something different 
no jangle of jingle bells  
I wonder what it can be
this ad is trying to sell  

Get your foxy on
instructs the bingo ad on TV
It is a gambling website 
where you can play for free!  

There is a caution message
it is meant to make you think
Pay careful attention 
as you will miss it if you blink 

I moan about those Christmas ads
when they appear in November 
But!
they don’t annoy me half as much
as gambling ads in December

and for the rest of the year to be honest

Ha...I'll bet you don't gamble. Neither do I. I place my knowledge
and small "punting pot" against the expertise of the bookie.
It's called playing for pleasure. And like the old age I currently
inhabit,, it ain't for sissies (or gullible fools). .
