Oh mummy !
It's lunch time already
Deb son's house are set
At the family table
For dinner is about
To be served
Oh mummy,what take your time ?



I thought the market is near
Mummy, what kept you
That long ?
Thought your words
Never slipped
Why now ?
Mummy, why now ?


Mummy, should we fill the kettle for you ?
Should we fetch the fire ?
I can defrost the beef
If am permitted
Come quickly
Come quickly
Oh mummy, can we share the apples ?



Cath said we should go visit
To the Debson's house
Mummy should we ?
Eeehn mummy ?
Shouldn't we ?
Because I know
You are almost home


Robinson won't you go ?
Won't you come along ?
Who knows ?
She might have missed the last train
Maybe mummy met a long time friend
At the market square
Who knows
Whether she lost her purse.
