Your mother stood talking With Mrs Clark after school And you were kicking your Heels waiting to get home To your toys and games and You gazed at Mrs Clark’s young Daughter who poked her head Out from around her mother’s Wide *** and stared at you Through thin wired spectacles Which made her eyes large as Fish in glass bowls and her hair Was ribboned up in two plaits Either side of her head giving Her a stern expression and Mrs Clark said Helen here has a crush On your son or so she told me After school yesterday and Mrs Clark gave you a big smile like A hippo coming out of water And your mother said he never Talks of girls and such all too Busy with his toys and games And shooting from his imaginary Horse around the house and Mrs Clark said well boys will Be boys and girls be girls each Playing games with their own Toys and Helen poked out her Tongue and a boss-eyed stare God was you glad when your Mother took you out of there.
