Where do they make the white lines

We see on every roadway?

Are they albino black lines

They chose to throw away?

Surely there’s a department run

By a grey-suit government minister

Who monitors the rights of lines

To make sure nothing sinister

Is happening to minority groups

Of lines single and double

(If we use one instead of two

Will we get into trouble?)

And what has happened to the lines

Of purple, green and blue?

They’d make our roads much jollier

Though it might confuse a few.

Then last of all, but not the least,

And this I find quite narking

Who controls those bully yellow lines

That stop us all from parking?
