A pre-requisite for keeping fit
is to go down to the Gymnasium
and do a bit of
exercise.

Now,
I'd be telling lies if I said,
'I go there every day'
It's the place I try to keep away
from.
The 'bomb' it may be
but not for me.

I shall strangle in my lassitude
Brood on what might have been
for I have seen those muscle bound
who think they've found the key
Gymnasiums are not for me.

I see a cream cake
take a slice or two.
Cream cakes make me do that,
can't see myself flat on my back
pumping iron
trying on another weight to build up the little strength I've got.

No.
the Gym is not for me
you may peddle on the bike or exercise until you sweat
I'll just get another cake
that's the only weight I want to lift.
Fit's a gift I had and lost
And anyway I can't afford the cost
of registration
