LADY PENELOPE

By the Urban Poet

Thunderbirds are go!

I used to love that bloody show

Many years ago when I was a kid

Watching that programme was all I did

 

The main character was Jeff Tracy

But the one I liked was quite a bit racey

She had long blonde hair 

and deep blue eyes

So beautiful that I just used to cry

Every time she came on my TV screen

Even when I was in my early teens

 

She was my very first love, it is no lie

For Lady Penelope I would have given my life

But it eventually dawned on me

that she was a puppet

My mates thought I was a right muppet

 

But it suited me really,

that we were never a match

Because I preferred relationships…

With no strings attached!
