A Brand New House
I moved into a brand new house
But I became quite flustered
When I then found to my dismay
That it was full of custard.
And so I sold it straight away
Along with all the custard
And moved into the house next door
Oh dear - it’s full of mustard.
But I became quite flustered
When I then found to my dismay
That it was full of custard.
And so I sold it straight away
Along with all the custard
And moved into the house next door
Oh dear - it’s full of mustard.
